This recent history is water under the bridge and perhaps a waste of my time, but I voted for her and was curious to see what it looked like from her perspective. It has been a little over a year ago since the 2024 election, we all know how it ended, and what has happened since.
Much of her account follows what was reported in the news so there's not much the was new to me. One thing I thought was interesting is that she said Pete Buttigieg would have been her choice for Vice President had he been a straight male. She felt that asking voters to vote for two historic firsts for both POTUS and VPOTUS would have been asking too much.
I also found it interesting that she made two telephone calls to her opponent during the campaign, once after the assassination attempt in Florida and the other after Election Day to concede defeat (something he did not do to Biden four years earlier). What may be surprising to some people is that he was very civil with his language in these two private conversations—in contrast to the slanderous lies publicly spouted during the campaign.
In the end 49.8% of the voters voted for a person with 34 felony convictions (and deserved more) instead of the author of this book (who got 48.3% of the votes). It was hard to believe in real time, and again when listening to this book.
