Less than three-months hence, Lee\u2019s campaign is beset by multiple criminal investigations into alleged campaign money laundering, ballot tampering and other campaign election violations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo who will he listen to if elected to a full term in office: the voters, or the powerbrokers?\u201d the book\u2019s back-cover asks. \u201cThe Real Ed Lee: The Untold, Untold Story chronicles his 20 years (and counting) of relationships with unregistered lobbyists, special interests and billionaires.
