Dominion Voting Systems, the controversial voting computer company that was at the heart of different theories about election fraud in 2020, has been taken over by “Liberty Vote,” a company that is promising major changes.
“Every legacy system is under review. Liberty Vote will be 100 percent American-owned, American-built and independently audited. We won’t ask for trust — we’ll earn it and prove it,” Liberty Vote Chairman Scott Leiendecker said to the Daily Caller.
Liberty Vote will be reportedly dropping its lawsuits against MyPillow founder Mike Lindell, election attorney Sidney Powell, and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani. They will also reportedly be dropping litigation with the parent company of the One America News Network.
Leiendecker is an election integrity activist who formerly served as the election director for the city of St. Louis, MO. Since leaving that position, he has worked to use technology to make the voting process more efficient and secure.
“The technology we use in our signature product, the Poll Pad, is an iPad-based system that eliminates paper poll books and the A through K lines, allowing voters to check in to their polling place in just a few short steps, reducing wait times and keeping voting lines moving more swiftly. After an election, our technology allows election officials to easily catalog the information from election day instead of the old way of transferring information from paper books to electronic systems. These efficiencies are better for election workers and taxpayers,” Leiendecker said while giving testimony before Congress in 2018.
“We use security features like two-factor authentication and a secure hosting environment using encryption algorithms approved by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. This prevents sensitive data from not only being exposed where it shouldn’t but also prevents it being manipulated by third parties. In short, we rely on security experts and the latest technologies to create a strong security infrastructure for our products,” Leiendecker added.
He now has a chance to demonstrate to the public that vote-tabulating computers can be run in a way that is honest, ethical and transparent. Leiendecker has a chance to restore faith in our elections, and we should all hope he does not squander this immense opportunity.
