Mia Rhodes was on the verge of transforming American politics. But when you take on the establishment, the establishment pushes back. Six months ago, Mia Rhodes was a Seattle office manager, toiling away from nine to five and spending her weekends managing her online political competition, Ameritocracy. Now, that competition is spreading across the American political landscape, making Mia a celebrity and giving Ameritocracy a real shot at upending the two-party system in the 2020 election. But tragedy strikes Ameritocracy when one of her leading candidates commits suicide, shaking up the competition and forcing Mia to confront the possibility that her project may be doing more harm than good. And to make matters worse, as the final voting draws near, Mia is betrayed by one of the people she trusts mosts, throwing Ameritocracy into disarray, and possibly ending her dream of changing the American politics forever.
