Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Matthys van Leeuwen never expected to investigate American elections. A former fraud investigator from the Netherlands, he assumed he had left analytical work behind when he traded coalition politics and red-pencil ballots for Washington State's all-mail voting system.That changed on a November night in 2017, when a local race swung sharply after the polls had closed. The numbers shifted in ways that didn't belong-and no one seemed to notice. For years it remained a quiet curiosity, until the 2025 Seattle mayor's race plunged into a twentyone-day count that defied every statistical expectation. That was the moment the itch became a mandate.The Unseen Swing blends memoir and forensic inquiry as van Leeuwen retraces nearly a decade of unexplained voting shifts. He sifts ballot-count data, maps turnout curves, and uncovers a recurring pattern that first emerged after the 2016 election. Along the way, he confronts a central, uncomfortable truth: universal mail-in voting relies on trust more than verification-and trust is the first thing to erode when ballots travel through private, unsupervised spaces.Part personal journey, part investigative analysis, The Unseen Swing offers a compelling look at how voting methods shape outcomes-and why the mechanics of democracy matter as much as the votes themselves.Part I: The Mirage of Election Night1.
