How Secure Are Our Elections?

It’s 2017. A cyber security conference hacks a suite of commonly used voting machines in a matter of hours, demonstrating the essential hardware’s vulnerability to attack.

Now, rewind to the past.

From 2004 to 2016, 305 elections were conducted with Republican candidates outperforming exit poll predictions by an average of 6 percentage points on election day.

What if you knew the chances of this happening were nearly impossible? What if you knew the chances of that happening were roughly 42 million to one?

42 Million to One is a political thriller about voting machine manipulation inspired by real electoral events. Lucy Gilmore, a young reporter, begins a journey to uncover proof that voting machines have been hacked and election outcomes have been altered. All at once, she discovers just how vulnerable our democracy has become. This eye-opening book speaks not just to voting machine corruption but the fragility of our democracy and why our struggle to govern effectively becomes more difficult every year.
