Money in Politics: Campaign Fundraising in the 2020 Presidential Election illustrates political fundraising’s importance in the 2020 presidential election from the party primaries through the General Election. Cayce Myers addresses how the role of corporate donations, individual contributors, and small donorship have become political talking points. Specific attention is given to the evolution of political fundraising, including a discussion regarding super-PACs, joint fundraising committees, and campaign committees. Myers explores how modern fundraising prowess serves as a barrier to successful entry into top tier candidacy but does not necessarily guarantee victory.

Numerous articles and books are written about the role of money in political campaigns. None are as well-documented, thorough, and enjoyable to read as this one. It provides a 150 year linear campaign finance history beginning with Theodore Roosevelt and culminating in the Biden/Trump campaign. What separates this book from others on the topic is its integration of factual commentary and statistical evidence with anecdotal stories and insider reflections. It is a scholarly work that reads like a novel. I highly recommend this informative and entertaining book to anyone interested in political campaigns.
