UPDATE: Dominion’s Connections to the Colorado Election Fraud Scandal
Guest post by Erin Clements
RECAP
Earlier this week we broke the story that election officials in Arapahoe County, Colorado were caught altering election records after one of their files from the 2020 election had been entered into a case filed against the Nevada Secretary of State, Cisco Aguilar. The election file is called a Cast Vote Record, and it’s a record of every vote on every ballot in a county.
The Cast Vote Record from Arapahoe County is being used as proof of widespread election fraud inside electronic voting systems by expert witness and mathematician Edward Solomon. The tell that the data from 2020 was falsely generated was that it showed Republicans and Democrats voting in perfect agreement throughout the “count” of the ballots on a measure called Proposition B – that would significantly raise property taxes on Colorado citizens. Solomon calls this impossibility “parallel partisan behavior.” No one believes that Republican and Democrat voters would be in perfect agreement on a partisan issue like property taxes, giving the Nevada case a real chance of success.
Apparently, someone who knew about the case against the Nevada SOS came up with a sloppy plan to replace the damning file and frame Ed Solomon for perjury. Sometime after November 2024, when Solomon submitted his evidence to the Nevada Court, and before March 21, 2025, someone inside the Arapahoe County Clerk and Recorder’s office posted an altered Cast Vote Record to their website which had removed the parallel partisan behavior in Proposition B.
Solomon plotted the “before” and “after” behavior in the plot below:
Original Rigged Voter Behavior and Altered Voter Behavior on Arapahoe County Proposition B
From the plot, you can see that the original, rigged values in the Cast Vote Record showed Republicans and Democrats voting in perfect unity on Proposition B. The altered file shows Republicans voting overwhelmingly against it, and Democrats voting overwhelmingly for it – which is consistent with expectations.
As explained in the previous article, Arapahoe County election officials bizarrely claim the alteration in the Cast Vote Record was suggested by a Yale Professor of Political Science, Shiro Kuriwaki, and that the parallel partisan behavior came about from “errors in redaction.”
These “errors” were “corrected” by Arapahoe County election staff who allegedly secretly replaced the original 2020 Cast Vote Record with an altered one.
This is a bogus excuse – the patterns in the original Cast Vote Record were not put there by any random “error.” Rather, they were put there by an intentional, sophisticated means. Their removal was just as intentional and sophisticated. Had it not been for accidental public access to both records and the brilliance of expert mathematician Ed Solomon, we never would have known what the Arapahoe County election officials and their Ivy-league handler had done.
Ed Solomon has determined that all but five ballots had been manipulated in the new file – for a total of almost 16 million individual vote switches:
The Old Arapahoe vs the New Arapahoe CVR:
354,242 ballots don’t match themselves, out of 354,247 total (also confirmed by @PatriotMarkCook ).
A Grand total of 15,824,590 changes occurred to the ballots.

Clearly, those carrying out the cheat aren’t as smart as those who designed it. They were in such a desperate hurry to erase the discovery of parallel partisan behavior that the “corrected” Cast Vote Record has precincts voting for entirely different state representatives than they did in the original file. It’s belated redistricting on steroids.
While the exact pathway for manipulation in Colorado is still under investigation, experts have long maintained that the American election system is so full of holes, backdoors, and cross-connections between systems, that it could have come from anywhere. This four-minute video shows just how interconnected, online, and easily exploited the election system really is:
DOMINION TIES
It turns out that both the Arapahoe County Clerk and Recorder’s office and Professor Kuriwaki are connected to Dominion Voting Systems.
The metadata for the original Cast Vote Record with the fraudulent “parallel partisan behavior” was uploaded to the Arapahoe County Clerk and Recorder’s office by the Election Manager Corene Henage:
Metadata from Original Cast Vote Record
According to her LinkedIn profile, Corene Henage has been Arapahoe County’s Elections Manager for 14 years. But that’s not the most interesting part – she was an account manager and project specialist at Dominion for almost 10 years!
Corene Henage’s Work History
Henage claims she worked for Dominion from May 2001 until November 2010. But Dominion claims it wasn’t founded until 2003 according to its website:
Current Statement on Dominion’s Website
A painfully sappy softball interview with Dominion’s president, John Poulos, written in 2009 and titled “Selling Trust in Democracy,” claims that Dominion opened its doors in 2002. The article also called Dominion a “Canadian tech firm.” The foreign origin of Dominion seems problematic from a national security standpoint where keeping foreign influence out of our elections is paramount.
Excerpts from 2009 Article “Selling Trust in Democracy”
So, if Henage really started working for Dominion in 2001, she must have been in on the ground floor, napkin-planning stages with Poulos and his foreign voting system company – even before the Help America Vote Act was passed which really got the electronic voting trend off the ground by pouring billions of tax dollars into electronic black boxes. But one thing is certain – a woman who has worked with Dominion equipment for a total of 24 years should be pretty good at exporting a Cast Vote Record correctly without help from a young Political Science Professor at Yale – making the “redaction error” narrative even more absurd.
In fact, Henage is an expert’s expert when it comes to electronic voting systems. In 2013, Arapahoe County put together a team of professionals to participate in a pilot-program sponsored by the Election Assistance Commission which sought to implement “Risk Limiting Audits” (RLAs) across the country. Dr. Philip Stark, the inventor of the RLA, and Matt Crane was also on the Arapahoe County RLA team. Matt Crane was the Arapaho County Clerk and Recorder at the time of the pilot study, but he went on to lead the Colorado Clerks Association, he is a current consultant for CISA, and his wife worked for Dominion.
Risk Limiting Audit Pilot Program Team
The RLA is an overly complicated process where a “statistically significant” number of ballots are “randomly” chosen from the Cast Vote Record by a computer program. The computer program also “randomly” chooses a small number of races on those ballots to be checked against the Cast Vote Record for accuracy. The Arapahoe County RLA pilot study claimed that verifying only 3 races on 44 ballots, out of the 288,000 ballots that were cast in the 2012 election, is sufficient to be reasonably certain there was not machine error in the election. That’s less than 0.002% of the votes cast in that election.
The election officials in Colorado want the public to feel really good that they check a miniscule fraction of votes and choose that miniscule fraction using another computer that tells them where to look.
But given Ed Solomon’s analysis of parallel partisan motion occurring in the Proposition B ballot measure, and the fact that the Cast Vote Record required almost 16 million vote switches to get to a “corrected” state – we can’t imagine how the 2020 election in Arapahoe County ever passed its RLA. And if it did “pass” when the Cast Vote Record is claimed by the election officials to contain that many errors, then RLAs are clearly a rigged or useless exercise.
Another character close to this charade is Dr. Charles Stewart III. Stewart is a Professor of Political Science at MIT. He has joined Professor Shiro Kuriwaki’s efforts to undo the damage mathematical analyses like Solomon’s have caused to the black box voting industry. Stewart and Kuriwaki collaborated on an article where they admit to appropriating a copyrighted database of Cast Vote Records, which they are now using to generate academic papers to gaslight the American people about the evidence of widespread fraud in the data.

Incidentally, Stewart is being retained by Dominion Voting Systems as an expert witness in the defamation case brought by Dominion against NewsMax for their sin of covering the many reports of widespread fraud and manipulation following the 2020 election.
Stewart’s interesting connections don’t stop there: From his biography: “Working with the Pew Charitable Trusts, he helped with the development of Pew’s Elections Performance Index. Professor Stewart also provided advice to the Presidential Commission on Election Administration. His research on measuring the performance of elections and polling place operations has been funded by Pew, the Democracy Fund, and the Hewlett Foundation.” (emphasis added)
Pew Charitable Trusts has another famous connection in David Becker – who was the former director of its elections program and the founder of the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC). Pew was one of the many shady NGOs on the take from USAID, the embattled agency which is being shut down by the Trump administration for its failure to distribute taxpayer funds in a manner aligned with America’s interests.
The far-left Democracy Fund helped finance efforts to give an air of legitimacy to all-inclusive pollbook software which is able to monitor elections on a real time basis. Incidentally, this type of monitoring could provide the very real-time data that would be needed to inject “parallel partisan behavior” into a Cast Vote Record.
It is astounding how the same short list of players keep showing up to plug holes in the dam holding back mass public awareness of provable exploitation of America’s election system. It is also interesting how with just a little bit of digging, it is easy to find ties between each of these players and the very election systems that most want to be protected from that public awareness. It is also astounding that as evidence of real criminal manipulation of election records continues to mount, that the innocent whistleblower, Tina Peters, who did everything she could to preserve and maintain election records, continues to languish in prison.
