What happens when we vote? What are we counting when we count
ballots? Who decides what an election should look like and what it
should mean? And why do so many people believe that some or all
elections are rigged? Moving between intellectual history, literary
criticism, and political theory, The Electoral Imagination offers a
critical account of the decisions before the decision, of the
aesthetic and imaginative choices that inform and, in some cases,
determine the nature and course of democratic elections. Drawing on
original interpretations of George Eliot and Ralph Ellison, Lewis
Carroll and Kenneth Arrow, Anthony Trollope and Arthur Koestler,
Richard Nixon and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, the Palm Beach Butterfly
Ballot and the Single Transferable Vote, The Electoral Imagination
works both to understand the systems we use to move between the one
and the many and to offer an alternative to the 'myth of rigging.'
