Synopsis

From veteran award-winning investigative journalists Michael Isikoff and Daniel Klaidman, the epic inside story of the prosecution of a president.
 
In Find Me the Votes, two years of immersive reporting by Isikoff and Klaidman has produced the most authoritative and dramatic account yet of a defeated president’s conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election and how a local Georgia prosecutor—a daughter of the civil rights movement—decided to indict him and his allies for his desperate attempt to hold on to power.  From the beginning, Fani Willis saw Donald Trump’s crimes as a voting rights case, and an attempt by the former president to deprive the citizens of Georgia of the franchise, a right for which her forebears had bled.
 
 Isikoff and Klaidman take us deep inside both the nerve center of Trump’s effort to steal the election and the DA’s team of prosecutors as they build their case against the president. Their reporting reveals new information on the plot to criminally seize voting equipment in several states; Sidney Powell’s attempt to obtain preemptive pardons from Trump; and revelatory communications between the president and his co-conspirators. We see the prosecution take shape in Willis’s office in the face of heinous threats of violent retaliation from Trump’s supporters. 
 
With blockbuster original reporting and exclusive access to thousands of secret documents, emails, text messages, and audio recordings, Find Me the Votes is investigative journalism at its finest. The authors also conducted exclusive interviews with key sources in the Trump conspiracy, as well as with the president’s top targets, including Georgia secretary of state Brad Raffensperger and the Fulton County DA’s team–featuring hours of interviews with Fani Willis herself. This is riveting contemporary history, and a lasting account of the prosecution of a president who tested the rule of law as no president ever had before. Isikoff and Klaidman have written a story for the ages.

Goodreads review by Beauregard on February 24, 2024

Election deniers are willful participants in suspending disbelief and claim to believe the absurd for furtherance of enabling their special brand of terror on democracy. They want a leader to tell them how to think and what to believe in even if their evidence for election fraud involves a mother gi......more

Goodreads review by Lexi on January 31, 2024

This was SOOOOO good. I've been wanting to learn more about each of the cases against Trump. This one was about his RICO case in Georgia. A must read for any American who wants to know the length the Trump team went to steal the 2020 election.......more

Goodreads review by Kenny on February 17, 2024

This book is well written and an interesting take on one of the many criminal trials that former President Trump is rightly facing. That being said, the authors here go over the top in their anti-Trump personal bias and in their near hero worship of Willis. Regarding the latter, one has to wonder if......more

Goodreads review by Geo on February 10, 2024

I particularly appreciated the biographical section early in the book. I have a much clearer understanding of Fani Willis. I find her wisdom lacking in that she seems to make "what were you thinking" decisions at various points in her adult life, not just the recent untimely affair with one of her p......more

Goodreads review by John on January 31, 2024

It seems absurdly early to come out with this book before the trial at its heart takes place. Too often, it reads like a puff piece for prosecutor Fani Willis more than a straightforward account of the case. Still, the incredible arrogance and stupidity of those who committed these outrageous acts r......more
