About this listen

The Ballot Breakdown is a tour through 250 years of America’s most spectacular electoral meltdowns. From property-based voting and backroom deals to voter suppression, stolen narratives, televised chaos, algorithmic manipulation, and the Capitol riot — this book tells the truth about a system that was never built to hold this much pressure. Through calm, cutting analysis and a voice that never picks sides, JJ walks the reader through the most infamous (and forgotten) moments in American election history — exposing the myths we cling to, the tools used to twist outcomes, and the slow unraveling of collective trust. This isn’t a conspiracy theory. It’s not a partisan hit piece. It’s just the story. Told straight. Told loud. Told before it happens again. If you’ve ever wondered why the people around you — or inside you — no longer believe in the vote… This is the book that explains why.
