The Big Truth: Upholding Democracy in the Age of “The Big Lie”

Major Garrett and David Becker in Conversation with John Dickerson

Sep 18, 2022


With the midterms around the corner, Major Garrett and David Becker explore the threats to American democracy, the validity of the 2020 election, the new pressures being placed on the voting system and ways in which voting can be improved. These are the issues the two expertly examine in their new book The Big Truth: Upholding Democracy in the Age of “The Big Lie”. The event, moderated by CBS’ chief political analyst, John Dickerson, will cover these timely topics, their thoughts on the current political climate, and their hopes for voter enfranchisement.
