In this critical examination of the events leading up to and following the election, political advisor Scott Ferson goes straight to the source--the American people--to understand how this happened.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn November 2024, the Democrats lost Steve--a lot of Steves, too many Steves, enough Steves to swing an election and tilt history's trajectory. Steve is the voter who's never chosen a party, who works full-time or overtime just to make ends meet, and who simply wants to be able to live the American dream that they were promised. A generation ago, Steve would have been a Democrat, by tradition or community or through union organizing. Now, Steve is lost to the Democrats, and, for those in disbelief over the 2024 election, the hard lesson is \u003ci\u003ethe Democrats never even tried to win over Steve.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHow the Democrats Lost Steve\u003c\/i\u003e explains not only why Kamala Harris and the Democrats lost the 2024 election but the larger disconnect the party has with voters in general, particularly those who don't hug both coasts or live in select big cities in between.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough thousands of interviews over the past eight years, Scott Ferson exposes a larger problem facing our democracy: A profound disconnect with the people. By listening to people and understanding their real concerns, Democrats can find the way forward and take the steps to reconnect the people with the American promise of democracy. Democrats have a choice. Steve can be lost and forgotten, or lost and found.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Scott Ferson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798887981857\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Turner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/07\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Scott Ferson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47087811789055,"sku":"9798887981857","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_657dbb24-fa2a-40a2-8e8e-47ce744000df.jpg?v=1753850868","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/how-the-democrats-lost-steve-scott-ferson-9798887981857","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
