Oh, Dominion Voting Systems! The company that no one knew about until the 2020 election. I mean, let’s be honest, who even thinks about voting technology companies in their day-to-day life? But then, along came former President Donald J. Trump, and suddenly, Dominion is the talk of the town. And, might I add, not in a good way!

You see, Trump and his merry band of allies accused Dominion of perpetrating election fraud. That’s right, folks. They thought a voting technology company was responsible for election fraud. Can you imagine? What’s next? Blaming the toaster for burnt toast? Anyway, Dominion didn’t take too kindly to these allegations, and they decided to slap some defamation lawsuits against public figures and news networks. Talk about a power move, am I right?

Now, Dominion’s biggest case is against Fox News. And guess what? The trial is supposed to start this week! But hold your horses, folks. Judge Eric M. Davis, who’s presiding over the case, delayed the trial by a day. Why? We don’t know. He’s keeping us in suspense. But he did say he’ll let us know on Monday at 9 a.m. So, mark your calendars, folks. We got a trial to watch!

So, what’s the deal with Dominion? Well, John Poulos started the company more than two decades ago in his basement in Canada. Yes, you heard that right. Dominion’s origin story begins in a basement. It’s like a superhero movie, but instead of fighting bad guys, they’re fighting for fair elections. Dominion’s claim to fame is their Democracy Suite software and ImageCast voting and tabulation machines. They’re kind of a big deal in the elections industry, with 28 states and Puerto Rico using their products in the 2020 election. That’s a lot of voting machines, if you ask me.

And that, my friends, is what we know about Dominion Voting Systems. From a Canadian basement to a powerful perch in the elections industry, it’s been a wild ride. Who knows what the future holds for Dominion, but one thing’s for sure: they’re not going down without a fight. If this trial against Fox News is anything to go by, they are not messing around.
