Dominion Voting Systems

Dominion Voting Systems is a privately owned Denver-based company that sells electronic voting machines.

In August 2010, Dominion reported that it has contracts to provide electronic voting systems to 600 jurisdictions in some 22 states of the United States, and has deployed 80,000 Dominion ImageCast Precinct Optical Scan Tabulators around the world.[1]

Dominion was founded in 2002 in Toronto, Canada, by John Poulos and James Hoover. [2]

In May 2010, Dominion acquired Premier Election Solutions (PES) from Election Systems & Software (ES&S). (ES&S had just acquired PES from Diebold and was required to sell off PES by the United States Department of Justice for anti-trust concerns.)

In June 2010, Dominion acquired Sequoia Voting Systems. The two acquisitions expanded Dominion significantly. With the acquisitions the company moved its headquarters to Denver.[3]

Poulos, President and CEO of Dominion, has a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Toronto and an MBA from INSEAD, in Fontainebleau, France.[4] Hoover (Vice President) has an MS in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Alberta.[5]
