The Game of Votes: Visual Media Politics and Elections in the Digital Era [1] is a 2019 non-fiction book[2] by Indian photographer Farhat Basir Khan,[3] and faculty member at the AJK Mass Communication and Research Centre, Jamia Millia Islamia.
The book has a foreword by former President of India Pranab Mukherjee,[1][4] which The Times of India called "incisive".[4]
The Game of Votes is centred on the changing trends in elections[1] and examines what Khan sees as the paradigm shift in political campaigning most evident in the campaigns of Barack Obama, Donald Trump[5] and Narendra Modi.[2]
The book was published by SAGE in August 2019.[6]
