Jasmine Crockett Spouts Conspiracy Theory About GOP Rigging Midterm Elections

Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett baselessly theorized on “Defending Democracy with Marc Elias” Monday that Republicans may be planning to rig the 2026 midterm elections using Dominion voting machines.

Former GOP election reform advocate and Liberty Vote founder and chairman Scott Leiendecker acquired Dominion Voting Systems in October. Crockett claimed on the podcast that Leiendecker was a friend of President Donald Trump’s and that it was possible he bought Dominion to meddle with its voting machines to help Republicans win the midterms.

“We do know that one of his friends has purchased Dominion,” Crockett said. “So, it’s going to be really important for us to educate all states that we can to make sure that their secretary of states are like, ‘We don’t want the Dominion machines.’”

“Because I personally believe that that ally purchased Dominion so that he could potentially play with the machines, because we know that they’re trying to cheat by changing the lines for the midterms,” she continued. “And I think that they’re trying to solidify their cheat potentially with the voting machines.”

The deal for Leiendecker to purchase Dominion was contingent on dropping several remaining lawsuits against prominent conservatives and One America News Network (OANN).

“Every legacy system is under review. Liberty Vote will be 100 percent American-owned, American-built and independently audited,” Leiendecker told
