Sample Book Insights:
#1 A few years ago, in Virginia, a doofus voted for the wrong candidates in the state house of delegates. His ballot was examined by a judge, who decided that every voter deserves a chance to be heard.
#2 The idea that every vote counts is inspiring and patriotic, but it is completely false. The probability of a single vote determining an election is so low that it would take centuries.
#3 The true moral of Shelly Simonds’s story is not that every vote counts, but that people who vote are important in a way people who don’t vote are not.
#4 America has two countries, the electorate and the non-voters. The electorate votes for representatives who then make decisions that affect them, while the non-voters simply accept how things are.
