'Bush v. Gore was a momentous case not only for its direct political consequences, but also because it helped to expose the many flaws in America's antiquated and idiosyncratic electoral system. This book describes and analyzes the progress and frustrations associated with efforts to fix the US election system since the 2000 election drawing upon legal, administrative, political, and democratic theory experts. It is not only a significant work of scholarship from major election law figures. Just as importantly, it offers useful lessons about political reform for those who seek to change the US system in the future.' Bruce E. Cain, Stanford University
