CODE RED is about what has happened to American elections, American politics, and America since computers took over the vote counting at the turn of this century.Its subtitle reflects our grave plight and this new ELECTION 2020 EDITION brings the story up to date, including how we got to the Age of Trump, what COVID means for our hopes to heal our broken democracy, and what we need to do NOW.There are many books explaining how we got here: the Clinton campaign this, the economy that, the white suburban voters without college the other thing… As varied as they may be, what all these accounts have in common is the assumption that, one way or another, we VOTED our way here. That is, Americans collectively cast the billions of ballots that, over the past half-dozen or so elections, added up to where we are now. As if we all got behind the wheel of the national car and somehow steered it over the cliff. That is not the account offered by CODE RED. CODE RED challenges the fundamental assumption that we voted our way over the cliff. It instead explores the possibility that, since the dawn of the computerized elections era–with votes counted in the partisan, proprietary, pitch-dark of cyberspace–the national car has behaved more like a self-driving car, programmer unknown.It examines those elections and the veer in American politics, culminating in the Age of Trump, that they have producedreaching conclusions about who or what has been driving the car that are both more chilling (its not us) and more encouraging (its not us) than anything else you are likely to read.Most important, its a book to read if youre asking how we can re-take the wheel. Because, while it may be of some comfort to realize that we did not vote our way to this terrible place, the correlate is that there is serious and urgent work to be done if we are to be able to vote our way out of it.CODE RED is unique, easy-to-understand, and vastly important. – Andrew Kreig, Justice Integrity Project’CODE RED is a modern-day call to action for all Americans concerned about the integrity of our voting process.’Ion Sancho, Leon County (FL) Supervisor of Elections 1989 – 2016As a professional statistician, I found CODE REDs data, analysis, and conclusions compelling. – Dr. Elizabeth Clarkson; Chief Statistician, National Inst. For Aviation Research’CODE RED is both a prescient history and a clarion call to fix the way we vote before government by the people is a fading memory.’ – Sue Halpern; Staff Writer, The New YorkerSimons research is thorough and his case is more than compelling He has provided an important public service. – John Zogby, The Zogby PollOther democracies have moved away from computerized vote tabulation but America continues to entrust its elections to privatized and concealed vote counting despite mounting evidence that its vulnerabilities to manipulation are being exploited, with profound political consequences.CODE RED shows how America came to embrace such a system and why we have been so resistant to any serious reconsideration of its safety. We examine the role of election administrators, politicians, and the media in stifling investigation of suspect American elections and the corruptible system that has produced them.Like the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, CODE RED sets a Doomsday Clock. The good news is that its not quite midnight. We can turn this country around–COVID-19 notwithstanding–but only if we first restore public, observable vote counting to our elections. It is a simple thing, but until we do it we will continue putting everything we value at risk.CODE RED combines analysis and advocacy and concludes with this call to action: ‘We need only to break a spell that has been cast on us–a spell of convenience, passivity, helplessness. We need only remember that democracy is not something that we watch, it is something that we do.’CODE RED: Read it and Act!
Jonathan Simons CODE RED is unique, timely, easy-to-understand,
and vastly important. The book uses an innovative Q&A format to enable
readers to comprehend why computerized elections fraud represents an
unprecedented challenge to democracy. The author has been a pioneering
expert in this research, which has been widely ignored by traditional
watchdog institutions and the political media. His book provides a
convenient news-peg for them to start doing their jobs instead of continuing
the go-along, get-along game.
– Andrew Kreig, Justice Integrity Project director and author of
‘Presidential Puppetry: Obama, Romney and Their Masters’
Jonathan Simon has been alerting us to the dangers of our insecure,
computerized election system long before anyone had even considered the
likelihood of malign foreign actors exploiting its weaknesses. The 2016
presidential election was a watershed moment for public awareness, but as
Simon showed in 2018, and now again in 2020, the vulnerabilities still exist,
and, more than ever, imperil our democracy. CODE RED is both a prescient
history and a clarion call to fix the way we vote before government by the
people is a fading memory.
– Sue Halpern; Staff Writer, ‘The New Yorker’
Jonathan Simon’s new edition of CODE RED is a modern-day clarion
call to action for all Americans concerned about the efficacy and integrity of
our voting process. Poorly built voting machines, lacking in critical security
protections, operating in local election offices without public transparency,
and without the most basic of protectionsrobust audits to verify our votes
are accurately tabulatedare bad enough, but when combined with the
larger picture of our hyper-partisanship, the willingness to suppress legal
voters, and even break laws, we are left with no other conclusion but that
our approach to our elections must immediately be changed if our
democratic republic is going to survive. Kudos to the author for looking at
the forest, and not just the trees, in this high-level examination of America’s
voting crisis.
– Ion V. Sancho, Supervisor of Elections of Leon County (FL), 1989
For nearly two decades, virtually all of our elections have been
conducted on privately owned and programmed computers with
unexaminable proprietary code. From its very beginning, Jonathan Simon
has been investigating, explaining, and trying to beat back this assault on
our democracy. In the era of computerized voting, a statistically all-butimpossible
serial red shift of victories to Republican candidates remains
beneath the national consciousness even while disinformation, ruthless
gerrymandering, and voter suppression in Republican-controlled states are
acknowledged. These depredations feel more possible to identify, oppose,
and potentially correct. As a psychiatrist I can only conclude that
recognizing, much less correcting, computerized election fraud evokes a
sense of helplessness and is a horror that most Americans cannot bear to
contemplate. In these extraordinarily perilous times, however, we have no
choice but to confront this reality and to take swift, drastic, and corrective
action. CODE RED points the way to recovery of our democracy.

CODE RED درباره اتفاقی است که برای انتخابات آمریکا، سیاست آمریکا و آمریکا از زمانی که رایانهها شمارش آرا را در آغاز قرن حاضر به دست گرفتند، اتفاق افتاده است. زیرنویس آن منعکس کننده وضعیت سخت ما است و این نسخه جدید ELECTION 2020 داستان را به روز میکند، از جمله چگونه به عصر ترامپ رسیدیم، معنای کووید برای امیدهای ما برای التیام دموکراسی شکستهمان چیست، و اکنون چه کاری باید انجام دهیم. کتابهای زیادی توضیح میدهند که چگونه به اینجا رسیدیم: کمپین کلینتون، اقتصاد آن، سفیدپوستان رای دهندگان حومه شهر بدون دانشگاه چیز دیگر… هر چقدر هم که متفاوت باشند، وجه مشترک همه این حساب ها این است که به هر شکلی، ما به راه خود در اینجا رای دادیم. یعنی آمریکاییها مجموعاً میلیاردها رای را به صندوق انداختند که در طی حدود نیمدوجین انتخابات گذشته، به جایگاهی که اکنون هستیم، اضافه شد. انگار همگی پشت فرمان ماشین ملی نشستیم و به نوعی آن را روی صخره هدایت کردیم. این حساب ارائه شده توسط CODE RED نیست. CODE RED این فرض اساسی را به چالش می کشد که ما راه خود را بر فراز صخره انتخاب کردیم. در عوض این امکان را بررسی میکند که از ابتدای عصر انتخابات رایانهای – با آرای شمارش شده در فضای مجازی، اختصاصی و تاریک – ماشین ملی بیشتر شبیه یک خودروی خودران و برنامهنویس ناشناخته رفتار کرده است. این انتخابات و انحراف در سیاست آمریکا را بررسی میکند، که در عصر ترامپ به اوج خود رسید، که نتیجهگیریهایی در مورد اینکه چه کسی یا چه چیزی ماشین را میراند که هم سردکنندهتر (این ما نیستیم) و هم دلگرمکنندهتر (این ما نیستیم) است را بررسی م
