Dominion Voting Systems has been purchased by Liberty Vote, a firm headed by a former GOP election official with ties to a staunch ally of President Donald Trump -- just weeks after Dominion settled several defamation lawsuits it filed in the wake of the 2020 election.

    Anyone who believes the US will see another legitimate democratic election is fooling themselves.

      I believe those were the same words uttered by half of Americans who chose not to vote last time round.

    And now that the shithead cheaters OWN THE VOTING MACHINES I’m sure they will suddenly be saying they’re the most trustworthy things ever.

    Reminder: check your voting results frequently when you vote next

    The new owner, Scott Leiendecker — a former Republican election director from St. Louis and founder of the tech company KNOWiNK — says his goal is to rebuild confidence in America’s voting process through transparency and paper-based security.

    Thank goodness.

      Is that paper 100% untouched by machines? Is it manually counted by multiple people of opposing parties?

      If no to either, then it’s untrustworthy.
