The minor error went largely unnoticed until Laura Cox, the chair of the Michigan Republican Party, alleged during a Nov. 6 press conference that the issue likely occurred in other counties that relied on Dominion.

Websites linked to the QAnon conspiracy theory also spread the debunked claim that Dominion Voting Systems was either owned or controlled by former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).
