When President Biden withdrew as the Democratic presidential candidate, this year’s US elections suddenly became a lot more chaotic.

The new Democratic candidate will be chosen by the Democratic National Convention in August, and Vice President Kamala Harris—endorsed by Biden—is the current front-runner. Whoever is chosen will only have a short time to impress before the elections on November 5.

We hope to help inform you on the state of US democracy and the upcoming elections. To do that, we’ve made available on our website a list of books on the US political process, as well as democracy as a political system, curated by our staff experts. It will be refreshed as events evolve, so stay tuned.

Stop by any of our stores to browse for further information sources old enough to have been edited, fact-checked, offered under a publisher’s brand name, and printed on paper. Words on paper offer stability by their very being, and we’ve got lots of them!

And if you are a US citizen living in the Netherlands, know that you can register to vote in our stores on certain weekend days.
