Was it, by chance, similar to what we’ve just witnessed with our own *election*?
The three top things you come away with in this book:
1. Lot of people were fearful of Communist take-over, so there is an extra public gut feeling that Hitler’s crew were more acceptable than communists.
2. Lot of ill feelings still left over from the ending of WW I, with blame constantly coming up.
3. Hitler’s crew did not have use of radio, because of the laws put into effect in the mid-1920s. However, just as soon as they were voted into office...that gave them the right to have speeches or events on radio. From that point on, they had all the control they needed.
I should note....throughout this book and most all history I have gleaned....there was never a suggestion of a corrupt count from the election. There might have been peer pressure at the polling station, but zero evidence of fake ballots.
