Find Me the Votes

A Hard-Charging Georgia Prosecutor, a Rogue President, and the Plot to Steal an American Election

De: Michael Isikoff, Daniel Klaidman

Narrado por: Fleet Cooper

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.

Learned a lot!

The timeline layout of the sprawling mess that has been the GA RICO case was perfect. The background for Fani's upbringing & education really shows that the characterization of her as some kind of liberal bleeding heart who's soft on crime is definitely not who she is. The authors were balanced in their presentations of missteps, bad decisions from an optics perspective, and provided a glimpse of Lin Wood that hasn't been prominent in typical reports. After hearing these accounts & seeing the accompanying police report that confirms it, I'm grateful he's no longer practicing. I can't help but think that this Georgia fiasco isn't the last we'll hear from him or several of the participants who were lucky enough to escape an indictment. Hopefully they'll make better choices henceforth. If not, I'm looking forward to the next book, gentlemen! Thanks to you & all your staff members, editors, publisher & everyone else who made this a fantastic listen!

Badass

A thorough book highlighting a portion of the insanity brought on by deplorable characters trying to further their fake reality.

Fani Willis is a major badass and hero charging against the ever-frustrating, anti-American injustices happening throughout this country, IMO.

The power of higher learning

A David and Goliath tale. Trump will loose his head to Fani Willis or her legal strategies, if she is disqualified. She is an unnatural force of righteousness.
God is with her.

This gives me hope

Fanni Willis is a truly amazing woman! I am hopeful the scrutiny she is undergoing will burnish her reputation and make her detractors look foolish
