Seems like it, just a few minutes after you received the funds from CB, this transaction occurred: 587645349fb0e5ceb23498d4ae9862e3d157765539e14cb988fe626e8e868ae8
If you did not initiated that transfer, It's highly likely that your Electrum is compromised via a couple of factors or you're using a fake version.

Unfortunately, Bitcoin transactions are irreversible.
All you can do is to check the reason of the hack and learn from it.

It's definitely not a fake version. I updated, installed, uninstalled. What factors could be involved? I'd like to know if it is indeed compromised and how that could happen.
