Is This Any Way to Vote?: Vulnerable Voting Machines and the Mysterious Industry Behind Them delves deep into the murky world of voting machines, from the big businesses that make and sell the machines to the hackers who can break into them. Produced by WhoWhatWhy, this book is an unflinching look at the vulnerabilities in our election equipment and what our strained infrastructure means for the very democracy we depend on.
The technology introduced to fix antiquated voting systems in the US has been buggy, easily hackable, or lacking in transparency at best. And so little is known about this technical aspect of our democracy, on which the monumental decisions of our country's course rely. Who owns the machines, who designs them, who builds them, how do they work, how are they shipped and stored and kept safe?
Is it correct to assume that voting in the United States is safe, tamper-proof, and democratically fair? Maybe not. Is This Any Way to Vote? peels back the layers of voting machines - their history, current context, problems, and the politics behind them. It ties the structure of our voting system to the results of those votes through a series of questions underneath subheadings including: The Voting-Machine Manufacturers, The Voting Machines, Accessibility, Vulnerabilities, and Solutions.
These are vignettes, narratives, and stories from those on all sides of the voting machine puzzle - from machine makers and machine lobbyists to voters, voting supervisors, activists, election officials, and researchers. Along with those stories, these sources provide answers to the questions, backed by solid research, primary papers, and governmental documentation.
Is This Any Way to Vote? is the premier primary source for those searching for answers, be they reporters, investigators, or the everyday voter.
It is the definitive guide on everything voting machine - and whether or not vote-by-mail is the answer we've been looking for.
