Fund authored a book, Stealing Elections: How Voter Fraud Threatens Our Democracy (Encounter Books, 2004, ISBN 1-59403-061-8) about the U.S. system, which he describes as "a haphazard, fraud-prone election system befitting an emerging Third World country rather than the world's leading democracy".
Earlier, Fund co-authored Cleaning House: America's Campaign for Term Limits (Regnery Gateway, 1992, ISBN 0-89526-516-8) with James Coyne. Some left-wing commentators claim that Rush Limbaugh's book, The Way Things Ought To Be, was ghostwritten by Fund.[1]
