Election Systems and Software
ES&S (Election Systems and Software) is headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska, and directed by President and CEO Tom Burt.
In 1999, American Information Systems (AIS) purchased Business Records Corporation (BRC) to eventually become ES&S. AIS, formerly known as Data Mark, was founded by Bob and Todd Urosevich and primarily funded by H.F. Ahmanson Co, a holding company that belonged to the Council for National Policy (a right-winged organization). Bob Urosevich, who played the role of CEO for Diebold Election Systems for a short time, was responsible for creating the original software that both Diebold and his original company I-Mark Systems used. Prior to Urosevich's time with Diebold, he programmed software for ES&S. At one time, the Urosevich brothers controlled 80% of the U.S. votes due to both working in senior positions at two of the largest electronic election companies (Diebold and ES&S).
ES&S has faced controversial allegations since the company's beginnings; AIS's ties to H.F. Ahmanson Co. In 1984, William and Robert Ahmanson funded Data Mark (soon to be AIS) and bought a 68% stake in the company. A few years later, an investment group, McCarthy & Co., also acquired a share of the stake in the company. In 1992, investment banker Chuck Hagel, who was president of McCarthy & Co., became a chairman of AIS. Hagel soon stepped down as director of AIS and become involved in the government as state governor. However, McCarthy & Co. (partial owners of ES&S) funded Hagel's campaign and Hagel still own more than $1 million in stock in McCarthy & Co. The complicated ties in ownership and relationships caused suspicion of ES&S, sparking conversation alleging the company of Republican ties.
Along with the claims of Republican partisan ties, accuracy has posed issues for the company for years. In 2007, the market leader lost public trust when more than 18,000 ballots in the general election were not cast. In 2012, ES&S was accused of supplying untested and non-state certified software in the Ohio elections, which highlighted past mistakes of the company such as the 10% pre-election testing fail in Cuyahoga County, Ohio. In 2016, with the immense uproar of claims that George Soros (a Hilary Clinton supporter) had ties to Smartmatic and Dominion, ES&S's ownership was also in question.
The relationship ES&S had with Dominion (who bought Premier from ES&S) was what dragged the company into the conversation. The relationship with Dominion put a spotlight on ES&S because Premier (a subsidiary of Dominion) was once known as Diebold, which one of the Urosevich brothers once directed. Essentially, ES&S suffered from a loss of trust due to its historical ties with other voting machine companies.
Despite the company's controversial past, ES&S is one of the original companies dedicated to providing election technology in response to changing times. ES&S offers an array of services and provides multiple products, including touch-screen voting, scanners, tabulators, election management software, poll books, ballot printers, registration software, optical-scan tabulators, DRE's and absentee processors. In 2009, the U.S. Department of Justice forced ES&S to divest its newly owned Premier Voting System's assets to keep the company from a 70% market share in the U.S. voting systems industry. However, the company is still the market leader. The company continues its mission to provide products, support, and services that support the democratic institution. The company recently announced that, following a successful 12-year partnership with Childress County, Texas election officials, they will again proudly supply the county with elections management equipment.
Dominion Voting
Dominion Voting's history roots back to 1895 with the invention of the Direct Recording lever machines in New York by a company known as AVM Company. Dominion Voting Systems is a Canadian company officially founded in the year 2000 with its headquarters in Denver, Colorado. Its founders are President and CEO, John Poulos and James Hoover. The company has been a part of technological innovation throughout history with notable benchmarks, such as the first Dominion Internet Voting customer in Canada in 2006, the EAC VVSG 2005 certification of the company's comprehensive suite of election solutions known as Democracy Suite in 2012, and the 2012 delivery of an automated counting machine (optical scan tabulator) in Mongolia. Furthering their accomplishments into 2013, Dominion Voting Systems led a remote voting process with the internet and telephone election of the Canadian Liberal Party leader. Additionally, the company's Democracy Suite system was chosen for statewide implementation in the state of New Mexico.
In 2010, Dominion Voting Systems acquired Premier Election Solutions, Inc., once owned by Diebold and then an owned subsidiary of Election Systems and Software (ES&S). With this acquirement, Dominion Voting Systems gained ownership of all of Premier's intellectual property, software, firmware, and hardware. To understand the controversy that stemmed from this purchase, we must look at the history of a previous owner of Premier.
Diebold purchased its election division, Premier, in 2002 following the Help America Vote Act, which funded states to purchase new voting machines. However, by 2003, Diebold was already wrought into controversy when the Diebold CEO, Walden O'Dell, wrote to Republican supporters that the company was committed to helping deliver their votes. O'Dell's actions compromised the impartiality of the entire corporation, making Diebold the target of voting activists. The controversy followed the company for years to come, even though Premier's acquisition by ES&S and then Dominion in 2010.
As mentioned, Dominion faced minor controversial issues in the acquirement of Premier due to the previous Security and Exchange Commission fraud lawsuits filed against Diebold. Furthermore, Dominion got into trouble with voting company Smartmatic.
Dominion entered into a 2009 contract with Smartmatic and provided Smartmatic with the PCOS machines (optical scanners) that were used in the 2010 Philippine election, the biggest automated election run by a private company. The automation of that first election in the Philippines was hailed by the international community and by the critics of the automation. The results transmission reached 90% of votes four hours after polls closed and Filipinos knew for the first time who would be their new president on Election Day. In keeping with local Election law requirements, Smartmatic and Dominion were required to provide the source code of the voting machines prior to elections so that it could be independently verified.
Both companies' reputations suffered as a result of heavily publicized litigation relating to a software glitch that was resolved just before the 2010 election and that litigation rumbled on to partly affect the mid-term elections in 2013. However, for the 2016 elections in the Philippines, Smartmatic operated with their own technology having released a new vote counting machine which replaced the previous version, resulting in "the speediest canvassing proceedings in the country's history."
In spite of the controversy associated with Dominion, they are still one of the major voting technology providers in the US. A recent press release out of Kent, Michigan announced the decision to partner with Dominion Voting Systems for the November 2017 Kent County election. In 2015, Puerto Rico announced its decision to select Dominion Voting System as its vendor of choice.
As noted in the Penn Wharton study, "The Business of Voting," Dominion Voting Systems reached approximately 71 million voters in 1,635 jurisdictions in 2016.
