| − | The company was subjected to extensive attention following the election,<ref>https://heavy.com/news/dominion-voting-systems-glitch-clinton-pelosi-michigan-georgia/</ref> at which then-president Donald Trump was defeated by Joe Biden - equipment manufactured by Dominion was used to process votes in twenty-eight states, including the close battleground (swing) states of Wisconsin and Georgia. In this election, accusations of all kinds manipulation were discussed and documented, not just related to Dominion voting machines. If accusations of manipulated vote counts in favor of Biden by the Dominion systems were true, then it should be noted that as any other electronic equipment, these devices can be [[hacked]] by third parties.
