In what could be a major move towards election reform, the electronic voting system company Dominion — that many have suspected or have accused of either doing a bad job tabulating computer ballots or purposely manipulating them — has now been purchased by an American company dubbed Liberty Vote that is owned by Republican election reform activist Scott Leiendecker.
Leiendecker, former GOP election reform advocate, has officially become the sole owner of Dominion after making the deal contingent on dropping several remaining lawsuits against prominent conservatives and One America News Network (OANN).
Leiendecker further disclosed to the Caller that remaining litigation with MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and former Trump campaign attorney Sidney Powell will be dropped by Dominion Voting Systems as part of the acquisition agreement. Dominion also filed a lawsuit against Herring Networks, which owns OANN, in August 2021. The lawsuit remained unresolved, though Leinendecker further confirmed that future litigation will be discontinued following the acquisition.
None of the charges against Dominion have ever been proven, and many have become impossible to investigate because the company’s very successful lawfare campaign, suing anyone who said anything against it, including news organizations such as Fox and Newsmax, both of which settled with Dominion, paying it $787 million and $67 million respectively. Nonetheless, the allegations have been numerous, substantial, and alarming (see also here, here, here, and here). Audits found errors, fraud, and the ability for outsiders to hack Dominion’s machines.
Leiendecker, in announcing the purchase, said that the new company will move all operations to the U.S. and will make third-party audits standard. It will also make paper ballots a fundamental component of its electronic tabulating system, something that Dominion did poorly or not at all.
Even if Dominion had been completely honest in its work, its resistance to investigation or even any criticism helped fuel the growing belief that the 2020 election of Biden was tampered with and might even have been fraudulent. That much of the company’s operations were foreign-based further fueled those suspicions. This purchase should help ease those concerns, though the proof will be in the pudding.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon or from any other book seller. If you want an autographed copy the price is $60 for the hardback and $45 for the paperback, plus $8 shipping for each. Go here for purchasing details. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.

“”It will also make paper ballots a fundamental component of its electronic tabulating system, something that Dominion did poorly or not at all.””
I will never forget that 2020 election video of the large containers of ballots under the tables. The election officials kicked everyone out, but did not know there was a camera recording their shenanigans. After they kicked most everyone out, they retrieved the containers from under the tables, and began stuffing the ballots into the machines.
Whenever I have pointed this out to doubters, they either babble incoherently, or just walk away.
Excellent news. But, as Ronaldus reminds us, honest vote tabulating machines are still just electronic ballot boxes – they can still be stuffed with fake ballots in crooked jurisdictions unless additional precautions are taken. But every step toward insuring vote integrity is a good one.
Purchased by a Republican activist…
Who’s former ownership was related to *Tag Romney‘s investment company, a different Republican activist. (Mitt Romney‘s son, allowed elections to be purchased by the highest bidders)
Old article from the memory hole, in 2012.
https://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/former-election-official-tagg-romneys-stake-msna15141
The trust claim then;
“the threat of a deliberate, politically motivated effort to corrupt the system’s results is very low. “Because we did the study, we were able to put into place a very comprehensive set of procedures to ensure that everything works as it should,” she said, adding that the software is now kept in a “secure location without any kind of random access.””
What a joke statement, pure PR. It should be placed in history along side; “If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor” “Iraq is building a nuclear bomb with yellow cake” “Afghanistan caused 9/11” “The shots are safe and effective” “wipe them? With a cloth?” “Depends on the definition of “is” is”…
I could probably do this all night.
If memory serves me correctly, a voting system (Smartmatic) created by Venezuela credited for keeping Hugo Chavez in power. (That lead to the collapse of the wealthiest nation in South America into the socialist paradise it is today…) They thought it would work here and it almost did.
Diebold, Who runs banking computers, begin making election computers. Smartmatic (Venezuela) owned one election company in the US, Sequoia Voting Systems (used by the “big blue states” with the track record a proven voting fraud) then sold to Dominion. Now purchased by “liberty vote” Who has proclaimed that all the fraud is over now and you can trust us! Quote;
“Liberty Vote signals a new chapter for American elections—one where trust is rebuilt from the ground up,” Leiendecker said. “Liberty Vote is committed to delivering election technology that prioritizes paper-based transparency, security, and simplicity so that voters can be assured that every ballot is filled-in accurately and fairly counted.”
“The acquisition marks a significant development in the U.S. election technology industry, bringing together two major players that would provide key infrastructure for voting and voter verification systems across dozens of states ahead of the 2026 midterm elections“
What was that movie quote? One ring to rule them all? Revolving doors with new owners with new promises of honesty, but the old corrupt system?
How can they do voter verification when the current voting roles includes millions of nonexistent people? Millions of more illegal, dead, out of state, or yet to be born voters? (yes, they found people on Social Security that haven’t been born yet)
My solution is to have a “voting week” (I work 12 hour shifts and often cannot vote on Election Day) where you vote “in person” with your ID, get a paper receipt from the official “Federal voting tabulator”, put your thumb in ink (like India) to prevent the same person voting twice. Scan your receipt to look for mistakes/confirmation/results at the exit poll (“State/County/District” Instant tabulator to compare with federal to keep it honest) and to view real time updates change with your added vote.
The country will have election results at the moment of elections closing. At which time official computers will be compared to exit polls to confirm no shenanigans took place. Can two separate computer systems be corrupted? Perhaps, but if so… we will need to go back to the most primitive of voting systems which had their own problems.
Now if we could get “non-fiction” information to educate ourselves to vote on the issues rather than the party…
* “Solamere was co-founded by Tagg Romney, son of Republican Presidential candidate, Mitt Romney. Solamere Capital was named after a private community in Deer Valley, Utah, where Romney owned a ski mansion. (Mitt Romney never lived in Utah although he was senator from Utah…. he had homes here to establish residence but he lived in his mansion in Massachusetts, where Brain capital was and was governor… and in his mansion in Florida)
Under the leadership of Tagg, Eric, and Spencer, the firm continues to be active in making both direct investments in operating companies, as well as partnering with other private equity and venture capital investors. The firm looks to partner and invest in growing founder and family-led businesses with EBITDA greater than $7 million. Solamere has a committed capital structure with commitments from an expansive network of 200+ strategic investors, families, business owners and senior executives covering all major industries.”
The new owners [sic] of Ohio’s voting machines under the brand name HART Intercivic is none other than Tagg Romney.
“We may not be able to buy this election, but we can buy the company that does the counting !”
Remember the first speech Biden gave as president? When he said he was going to the Caribbean Islands to find all those billionaires who are not paying taxes? That was partially directed directly at mitt Romney and family because he ran the largest billionaire hedge fund for other billionaire hedge funds tax free out of the islands.
Biden‘s mansions mysteriously got paid off, and then he mortgage them removing net worth to put millions in the bank, and then they all got paid off again! miraculous! On top of Hunter paying an outrageous sum as rent… An unregulated loophole. No Cayman Islands accounts were ever investigated or touched.
Started doing searches to see what came up.
$400 million laundered through a Swiss bank to pay off dominion. 2020
https://headlineusa.com/dominion-linked-soros-china-ubs/
This site keeps track of current dominion troubles that I was unaware of.
https://headlineusa.com/tag/dominion-voting-systems/
One of the articles talks about Arizona’s crowd strike problem which was proof that the voting machines “were” connected to the Internet.
“Reports are coming from Maricopa County, Arizona that Dominion voting machines are malfunctioning county-wide as a result of the CrowdStrike outage. Officials have long claimed that the machines are NEVER connected to the internet… you can laugh at those claims now“
Black rock ended the lawsuit with fox by buying Fox.
Will the sale of the company cure all the problems? How could it? Or is it designed to make the problems go away? Is the new company “Liberty Vote” primary stakeholder Black rock? (here’s the new boss, same as the old boss)
The proof of the pudding is in the tasting.
Our whole election system needs an overhaul.
But we first have to standardize our ID system. Either we issue a new voter ID for every citizen allowed to vote or we just use our SSN.
It could all be done just like a credit card system checks. Scan your ID and inside a minute it knows if you have voted anyplace prior in the US in this election. And if you are even a citizen qualified to vote.
If it flags you as non eligible you can still cast your vote but it will be on hold until its checked and certified.
We need to remove the ability for locals to accept a “resident” instead if a citizen as a voter.
No more ‘motor voter’.
Our elections are a sham. Voting machines need software, hardware, firmware, admin passwords, and especially internet connections to be sure the vote results are correct. Simple paper ballots are a threat to our democracy. Also, there can be no form of ID associated with voting, that is blatantly racist. There should be no election day, it is better if ballots are distributed and handled throughout election season, so that integrity can can be preserved. The most reliable ballots come from the post office. Duh!
“The sale price of Dominion was not disclosed, and details regarding the full terms of the acquisition remain private”
This is worrisome, where did a small company get billions of dollars to buy the largest voting system in America? Someone involved in digital registration with unproven allegations of impropriety in former elections in Missouri and their cover-up? (no paper trail, no proof)
Scroll down to the controversy section;
https://www.influencewatch.org/for-profit/knowink/
As part of the sale of dominion and it’s rebranding without changing any of its leadership, is to drop the lawsuits… In which now that Trump is in office, they have access to the data and the proof they need to win the lawsuits. (Most of prior lawsuits failed because the judges wouldn’t allow the evidence to be seen.)
(In Utah there was allegations, and 12 people who went to prison for fake signatures, which allowed our current RINO governor, who was not chosen by the party, to run for office… How did he get away with it? He made the elections chairman his lieutenant governor!)
pzatchok;
The new owner of the voting empire is already addressing the very thing you commented on. His digital, unverifiable, programmable on the fly, linked to an unsecured network voter verification System will Digitally Identify you in such a secure way that no one can dispute whether you exist or not. A dictators wet dream, so much better then a name in a “paper book” of people registered in a district that may or may not cause lines… (Which can be blamed on the voting booth, not registered check in.)
A solution looking for a problem.
And this Leiendecker did it so well, with 150 employees, that he was able to buy a voting empire?

From KNOWiNK website;
POLL PAD®
Fast and secure voter verification to replace the outdated and inefficient paper poll books that are often the cause of long lines at the polls and inefficient election record keeping.
(A pad probably made in China?)
“KNOWiNK has become the largest and most trusted electronic poll book solution in America. The KNOWiNK team includes former election administrators, officials, directors, and poll workers with extensive election experience. These former election officials understand the critical responsibilities and expectations jurisdictions face during elections.”
When I read this my brain thinks; “The most trusted criminal organization” “Here to give you the political outcome you paid for and deserve”. The people who run this world do not need your permission to do whatever they want. One thing has become obvious, the rules do not apply to the ruling class.
Let’s do a deeper dive, Who is the primary investor in knowInk? (I asked the search engine) The primary investor in KNOWiNK is Arch Grants. (named after the gateway arch)
“Arch Grants is a Missouri non-profit corporation whose mission is to advance economic development through entrepreneurship“
Picking a cofounder at random, Richard Tao, And this came up.
https://pdsoros.org/fellows/richard-tao/
Chinese immigrant sponsored by the “brother” of “George Soros” (what are the odds?)
“Paul Soros – Wikipedia”
“Paul Soros and his wife, Daisy Soros, founded The Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans, which provides funding for graduate degrees for immigrants“
I’m just a guy with a cell phone and no computer, and I found a link that George Soros has a connection to the new owner of our national voting computers? NO WAY!!!
My wife is yelling at me to go walking, I would have posted more, but I’ve got to go.
Some time ago I remember seeing a video of polling place procedures in an election in Mexico. The voter would approach a table and give their ID to the official behind the table. The official would check that the ID picture matched the voter’s face, then look up the ID in a book containing photos of everyone’s ID, to be sure that the ID wasn’t fake. Only then would the ballot be handed to the voter.
I’m still looking for a money trail.
I discovered I over estimated the worth of dominion when I found this article.
https://fortune.com/2023/04/19/big-winner-fox-7875-million-settlement-private-equity-firm-staple-street-1500-return/
“Staple Street Capital LLC acquired a roughly 76% stake in the voting technology company in 2018 for $38.8 million“ “assuming it had made no additional equity investments since 2018, would be $598.5 million, or 1,542% more than it paid for its stake in the company.“
The evidence that was not allowed in court that allowed fox (Black rock) to lose can be retried on appeal? Perhaps they negotiated a deal allowing them to keep the money in exchange for new ownership was reached? (I’m just guessing.) A counter suit with dominion would bankrupt the company and throw elections in this country into a spin. I think they found a compromise allowing new owners to control election voting.
A article from 2020.
The old owners;
William E. Kennard, Former Ambassador To The EU Under The Obama Administration, Sits On The Board Of Staple Street Capital, The Private Equity Firm That Acquired A Controlling Stake In Dominion Voting Systems In 2018.
https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GPO-J6-DOC-CTRL0000082095/pdf/GPO-J6-DOC-CTRL0000082095.pdf
(Looking up other board members I found connections to George Soros, Bill Gates, Planned Parenthood, The Clinton foundation etc.)
The new owners?;
“Georgia experienced problems on election morning with machines made by Knowlnk, a subcontractor of Dominion, in the counties of Morgan and Spalding, which prevented voters from casting ballots
o The technology glitch was allegedly due to a software upload the night before the election, but Dominion has disputed that“
“Morgan And Spalding Counties Used Voting Machines Made By Knowlnk, A Subcontractor Of
Dominion Voting Systems, Which Prevented Voters From Casting Machine Ballots On Election Day“
(they use Apple pads for voter verification… So trustworthy)
“The three largest voting manufacturing companies – Election Systems &Software, Dominion Voting Systems and Hart InterCivic – have acknowledged they all put modems in some of their tabulators and scanners. The reason? So that unofficial election results can more quickly be relayed to the public. Those modems connect to cell phone networks, which, in turn, are connected to the internet.”
(As Bob posted in the links above, this allows upload as well as download and can change the programming during active Election… One election official in Utah allowed a voting machine to be torn apart to observe it’s true nature, it was verified that it was simply a motherboard of a Smart phone with the Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and cell phone capabilities active)
Dominion admits it’s hardware and screens are made in China. (Back doors are built into the chips, that bypass the operating system allowing China to have access to the data on anything it makes)(recently the US government had to destroy all of its military motherboards because they had spy chips in bedded between the layers of the board)
This is an obvious attempt by chamber-of-commerce Mitt Romney types to make sure no Trump style populist ever becomes a GOP candidate again. Jeb Bush types only.
No thanks.
