No, because carbon monoxide is produced from the incomplete combustion of carbon-based materials such as gasoline, oil, propane...etc. Since electricity requires no combustion there is no way an electric stove could produce carbon monoxide.

The previous answers have addressed the CO occurrence fairly well; CO is produced by the combustion (rapid oxidation) of any substance. Smoke contains CO. When temperatures are equal CO is heavier than the atmosphere and will seek the lowest level, however, under fire conditions CO will rise with the smoke and other heated gases. If you had smoke in your apartment, you had CO as well. As far as your pregnant family member (or any of you) CO exposure is cumulative. That is, the longer you are exposed, the greater the risk. Short term exposure to low levels of CO (less than 30 ppm) is considered non-hazardous. The higher the concentration and the longer the exposure the higher the risk becomes. Your primary considerations for health should be: 1. Were any symptoms present. Headaches, flushing of the skin (red color), flu like symptoms? 2. What was the term of exposure? 3. What was the concentration of CO that the person received? CO binds the hemoglobin and displaces oxygen. CO is difficult to displace, allowing oxygen to re-enter the blood stream. If any symptoms are or were present please see your doctor.

No, I believe Carbon monoxide poison mainly come from combustion..

Only if the stove was inside a sealed garage next to a car with it's engine running.

No. You can only get CO from incomplete combustion of a carbon-based fuel.
