Justified
About This Book
Dr. Kelli Ward, a bestselling author, wrote this book as a follow-up to her earlier work. It examines the public mood after the 2020 presidential election, when many voters lacked faith in the outcome, and asks why confidence was so low. Her central argument is that elected officials should have used every power available to them to reassure voters.
Much of the book defends the decision to audit the election in Maricopa County. It traces how that audit came to be known across the nation and argues that election audits should be a routine, expected part of the process rather than an exception.
Readers can see many of the author's internal and external communications, including text messages, some of which had already been made public. According to the author, these come with context and background that mainstream outlets did not provide. The book covers the findings of the Maricopa Audit, the results of a canvass of Maricopa County led by Liz Harris, and several court cases brought by or with Dr. Ward.
The author contends that the record contains real evidence of wrongdoing and lawbreaking, and she explains why audits of elections should take place. Her account begins on November 3, 2020, when, according to polls, half of America's voters doubted the presidential results. She argues that political and press figures expected the public to disregard what they had seen for a year, including large Trump rallies in every state, and simply trust the reported outcome. She contrasts those rallies with a Biden campaign that, in her telling, rarely left his home.
