Supreme Court Won’t Hear Case Brought Against Dominion Voting Systems

The United States Supreme Court has declined to take up a case brought against Dominion Voting Systems by a group of voters who believe the company interfered in the 2020 presidential election. The Supreme Court did not give a reason for dismissing Kevin O’Rourke, et al. v. Dominion Voting Systems, et al. on December 5, but lower courts had previously rejected the case on grounds that the plaintiffs lacked legal standing to bring suit.

  • Even if this is the case, the House Intelligence Committee or some state legislature should investigate America’s scandal-plagued voting companies.

Hacking democracy: More than 90 percent of voters use machines manufactured by just three companies: Dominion Voting Systems, Election Systems & Software, and Hart InterCivic. That means malfunctioning—or malicious—hardware or software in the machines these companies produce could change the results of an election.

Today, it is conservatives like Sidney Powell, Rudy Giuliani, Mike Lindell and Donald Trump claiming that Dominion machines are a threat to the nation. But three years ago, it was leftists who were warning that Dominion machines could be a threat. In December 2019, senators Amy Klobuchar, Elizabeth Warren and Ron Wyden wrote to Staple Street Capital Group: “We are particularly concerned that secretive and ‘trouble-plagued companies,’ owned by private equity firms and responsible for manufacturing and maintaining voting machines and other election administration equipment, ‘have long skimped on security in favor of convenience,’ leaving voting systems across the country ‘prone to security problems.’”

War against the machines: When Barack Obama was running for president in 2008, he answered a question about how to prevent election fraud: “Well, I tell you what: It helps in Ohio that we have Democrats in charge of the machines.” He was implying that Republicans would use those machines to rig the vote, so he was quite familiar with election fraud and how voting machines can be manipulated. But now he insists that voting machines are perfectly trustworthy.

In his article “Ready for War,” Trumpet editor in chief Gerald Flurry noted that “if you don’t get rid of the machines Democrats used to steal the 2020 election, you won’t win another election. … America’s power structures are terminally ill, top to bottom. The government agents are sick; the legislators are sick; the judges are sick; the media moguls are sick; the officials counting our votes are sick. Why did it take officials in Clark County, Nevada, nearly a week to count 50,000 mail-in ballots when it should take less than a day? They were looking for various ways to pad the vote!”
