As the United States seeks to establish democratic reforms abroad, many U.S. citizens question whether democracy is safe at home. In recent years, there have been disturbing allegations of white police officers stopping African-American motorists on their way to the polls; immigrants, minorities, and the poor being denied the right to vote; and countless people voting fraudulently by registering under the names of the deceased or animals. Compounding the problem are public fears of elected officials seemingly more interested in taking corporate money than in helping their constituents and political campaigns that have devolved into 30-second personal attack ads. This newly revised edition examines ongoing debates over voting rights and election laws and asks how the United States might reach the ideal of "one person, one vote."
