What We're Reading This Week

Election night 2000 lasted 36 days. Hanging, dangling, and impregnated chads entered the national vocabulary; commentators pored over every detail of election-related lawsuits and opinion polls, and late-night comedians had a field day with all the personalities involved. While the nation experiences the civics lesson of a lifetime, then Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris became the object of intense national scrutiny. The race for the White House had ended in a photo finish, the winner to be decided by Florida's electoral votes, which were yet to be determined by a razor-thin margin of popular votes. Against the backdrop of the election controversy and its aftermath, Katherine Harris shares the time-honored stories and testimonies of wise, principled leaders who inspired her to think differently about her circumstances.
