Colorado Election Officials React to Sudden Sale of Dominion Voting Systems
Colorado clerks are trying to calm fears of a 'MAGA takeover' of the state's election equipment supplier after the sudden sale of Dominion Voting Systems to a former Republican election official.
The new company, Liberty Vote, has taken over the Denver-based Dominion Voting Systems, catching many county clerks off guard. Unaffiliated clerk Tiffany Lee from La Plata County stated,
“There was no notification to us that this was even a conversation at their level,”and expressed concern over the lack of direct information from Dominion or Liberty Vote.
Key facts about the situation include:
- Sixty of Colorado's 64 counties had contracts with Dominion for ballot scanning and counting technology.
- The sale was announced through the media and Liberty Vote's press release, with no advance warning to county clerks.
