On Tuesday, Michigan Author and Election Activist Patrick Colbeck shared this chart on X:
Colbeck claimed the chart was the “family tree of Liberty Vote,” but I think it’s the family tree of Dominion. For example:
“Should KNOWiNK be on this chart?”
It’s an interesting question from the comments when I shared Pat’s post.
Same owner, separate businesses.
As I understand it, Dominion is “doing business as” Liberty Vote from a legal entity standpoint. They would be included in the chart if the orientation was “family tree” of Leiendecker businesses, but this chart is about Dominion…
But if KNOWiNK is (or will be) “doing business as” Liberty Vote as well, that raises other questions.
If KNOWiNK is “doing business as” Liberty Vote, that means the two entities are separate companies that share the same branding. That is consistent with what I heard from the attendees of the Colorado Clerk’s meeting Monday, with the Liberty Vote CEO (and the long term Dominion Rep for the region): That the biggest – and maybe, but not necessarily, only – reason for this change is branding and reputation management to combat the crisis of public trust.
I still think KNOWiNK would not be included in this chart, because that would be the family tree of Liberty Vote, not Dominion, and it’s unclear if KNOWiNK is restructuring in the same way. If either entity is “doing business as” Liberty Vote, then they’re still their own entity.
But for how long?
Consider: “Same team, same service, different name.” (reportedly Dominion, doing business as Liberty Vote)
Are all the Dominion relationship managers now Liberty Vote relationship managers? Are all the KNOWiNK relationship managers now Liberty Vote relationship managers as well – and does that mean the same thing in both entities? Relationship Manager is largely a technology agnostic role that both companies (and ostensibly Liberty Vote) would require. What’s the overlap in the client portfolio they’re managing? Will there be a RIF? Will one of the entities’ relationship managers win out in the event of reducing duplication? Which employee types are being retained from the acquired company (Dominion) and which are not (and why)? Will, for example, the relationship managers manage the clients — which are governments — and sell solutions for all Liberty Vote solutions (Dominion and KNOWiNK and whatever else he may buy), or are they always going to be separate?
What I’m getting at is, does Liberty Vote ever become anything more than a branded holding company? What is the level of change to elections as a result of the change in owner of the election vendor? Right now, it seems like it’s low. From sources on the call Monday:
Q: What is being done to ensure uninterrupted election support for Colorado counties through 2026?
Leiendecker: “Unless there is something I’m not aware of, it’s going to be exactly the same, how you had it.”
I look forward to more verifiable information on the ROADMAP for the legal structure, governance / decision rights, people and management structures, and technical solutions architecture of Liberty Vote.
The People have questions, and we are entitled to have those questions answered in detail – particularly if the whole point of “Liberty Vote” is to combat the industry’s massive public trust problem.
Finally, the Dominion chart takes on new meaning when you lay the industry timeline over the legislative one.
Public-Private Partnerships usually mean plausible deniability and ambiguity of decision rights.
The Help America Vote Act (HAVA) — Marxist dystopian name — gave birth to the centralized elections industry in the US — and HAVA was passed in 2002. The same year Dominion’s ancestors arrived on Ellis Island.
Coincidence?
