Publisher's summary

With Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s sudden passing, control of the Supreme Court — and with it the fate of the Constitution — has become the deciding issue for many voters in the 2020 presidential election. And the stakes could not be higher.

With a simple majority on the Supreme Court, the left will have the power to curtail or even abolish the freedoms that have made our country a beacon to the world. We are one vote away from losing the Republic that the Founders handed down to us. Our most precious constitutional rights hang by a thread.

Senator Ted Cruz has spent his entire career on the front line of the war to protect our constitutional rights. And as a Supreme Court clerk, solicitor general of Texas, and private litigator, he played a key role in some of the most important legal cases of the past two decades.

In One Vote Away, you will discover how often the high court decisions that affect your life have been decided by just one vote. One vote preserves your right to speak freely, to bear arms, and to exercise your faith. One vote will determine whether your children enjoy their full inheritance as American citizens.

God may endow us with “certain unalienable rights,” but whether we enjoy them depends on nine judges — the “priests of the robe” who have the last say in our system of government. Drawing back the curtain of their temple, Senator Cruz reveals the struggles, arguments, and strife that have shaped the fate of those rights. No one who listens to One Vote Away can ever again take a single seat on the Supreme Court for granted.

Substantive and easy to understand

Senator Cruz brilliantly illustrates, through a myriad of personal fights he’s experienced, just how important nominating the right people for the Supreme Court is. With each topic he gives an example of a case from history as well as one that is recent. He also tells some behind the scenes stories from the 2016 campaign through to the writing of this book. Probably the best “tell all” of the Trump administration.

Compelling.

Very informative. Should be required reading in High School.

Loved it. The most impressing revelation, to me, was the "betrayal " to the people by justice O'Connor.

Equally revealing is that justice Roberts had integrity once in his judicial life.

Well written and a good listen

As a fan of Ted Cruz’s podcast, I wish he would’ve read this book. It was well written and well spoken on the audiobook version, so I have no complaints. It’s one of those books that lays out the history & facts of the Supreme Court and then gives examples of such. I look forward to another Ted Cruz book in the future.

Intriguing History

A great read if you want to learn how we are one vote away with the Supreme Court in losing some of our most fundamental rights. I love history and really enjoyed learning about a couple pivotal Supreme Court cases in the not-so-distant past that has shaped our country.

An excellent inside baseball into the Judiciary

Whether you enjoy the authors politics or not, Cruz bats 1000 when it comes to constitutionality, never being wrong and always being right. (objectively according to the text of the United States Constitution) Through his colorful and insightful anecdotes, as well as his testimony as an Insider to historical events,
he lays bare the Left's deference, hypocrisy, ignorance, and overall mission of Leftist activist to destroy the Constitution at all costs via the highest level of the Judiciary, to bring forth their new world order, and we are always just one vote away.
