I’m sure Venezuela has all kinds of time to be messing with our elections, NOT.

I lived in Venezuela during some of the Chavez years , I sure do have the majority. The opposition/ US puppet was the side trying to cheat because they couldn’t beat sucjh a huge majority.

Smartmatic admits using unofficial servers

THE CAMP of former senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. was surprised to learn directly from Smartmatic that it used several servers apart from those sanctioned by the Commission on Elections during the May 2016 elections.

He cited the admission of Marlon Garcia, head of the Technical Support Team of Venezuela’s Smartmatic, that aside from the three servers sanctioned by the Comelec in the transmission of votes under the Automated Election System (AES), there also existed a “meet me room” where several servers were housed.


“This is a good day for Senator Marcos’ quest for truth because they (Smartmatic) finally admitted the existence of several other servers aside from the three legally authorized servers,” Rodriguez told reporters after a hearing on Thursday at the Manila Prosecutor’s Office.

Smartmatic lawyer George Aquino denied there were major changes at the height of the transmission of votes on May 9 when the almost one-million margin of Marcos was overtaken by his rival, then Camarines Sur representative and now Vice President Maria Leonor “Leni”


Rodriguez pointed out that instead of the votes being transmitted directly to the three servers, namely the Municipal Board of Canvassing Server, the Comelec Server and the Transparency Server, the results were first coursed through “Queue Servers.”

This was not divulged to the public and was never subjected to a source code review unlike the other servers used in the elections, said Rodriguez.
"Accept now that all you have seen from the day of your birth on the surface of the earth, to the present, are wonderful only because the finite mind of man is confused with fragments of evidence, that, from whatever direction we meet them, spring from an unreachable infinity."

"There was a man who could create what could not be imagined. A temple so great you questioned if it was built with human hands. A man who built an idea into the greatest force the world has ever known. A world built from a single word. I care not for the folly of man but for the end of human contention."

For three years, the nation's two largest suppliers of voting machinery have driven feverishly for sales and shown the symptoms of overextension -- missed deliveries, faulty equipment and breach-of-contract lawsuits.

Until recently, the supplier running a close third kept a lower profile than competitors Diebold and Election Systems & Software, though quietly snapping up sales of voting systems on both coasts, all of Nevada and Louisiana, as well as Chicago and Cook County.

With a $13.3 million contract signed Friday by Alameda County, Sequoia Voting Systems arguably became the dominant voting-system maker in California, with more counties than any other.

Outside California, a controversy has sprung up over the foreign ownership of Oakland-based Sequoia.

Politicians in the Windy City and CNN journalist Lou Dobbs suggested recently that the federal government was derelict in not having investigated Sequoia and its acquisition last year by Smartmatic, a Boca Raton, Fla., firm largely owned by Venezuelan businessmen.

After Chicago and Cook County were plagued with delays this spring in tallying a primary, city alderman Edward Burke suggested Sequoia's voting machines were part of a conspiracy by Venezuela President Hugo Chavez to manipulate U.S. elections.

"We may have stumbled across what could be (an) international conspiracy to subvert the electoral process in the United States of America," Burke told reporters. ...

Soon after, editorial writers at Investors Business Daily warned that "we might just get ambushed again if the Venezuelan government ends up controlling our elections."

In late May, the U.S. Treasury Department requested Sequoia and Smartmatic documents on the transaction, as a potential preliminary to review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S., ...

Next to a television logo reading "Democracy for Sale," Dobbs said, "we know what we're dealing with, and it is a dysfunctional government that is trying to render our elections precisely the same."

The indignation has taken Sequoia executives by surprise, partly because Sequoia has been foreign-owned for 24 years. The firm's roots go back to 1890.

In the early 1980's, Sequoia was sold to the Irish printing conglomerate Jefferson Smurfit, which sold the company to De La Rue, a British banking technology and currency printing house. Sequoia lost money in 2004 and De La Rue sold it to Smartmatic Co. of Boca Raton, which is owned by companies of the Smartmatic Group based in the Netherlands and Curacao.

Smartmatic was a virtual unknown until 2004 when as part of a consortium, it won a $91 million voting machine contract in Venezuela. Another firm in the consortium, Bizta, had some of the same investors and had gotten a loan from the Venezuelan government secured by a 28 percent equity stake. The consortium's machines were used in the unsuccessful 2004 recall referendum against Chavez.

News of the Venezuelan government's stake in Bizta sparked protest, and Smartmatic officials said, Bizta paid off the loan before the election.

Smartmatic purchased Sequoia a year later, and executives of both companies say neither has ties to the Venezuelan government.

Sequoia executives say the purchase by Smartmatic, another voting company, has been a good fit.

"It is a wonderful and healthy partnership, and I couldn't be happier," said Howard Cramer, Sequoia's vice president of sales. The firm employs 150; just more than half are in Oakland.

...

Elections officials in the Chicago area say most of their problems in the March primary sprang from shifting to a new voting system of three different electronic components after decades of voting on punchcards.

For Cook County Clerk David Orr, Sequoia's foreign ownership is a "bogus issue," said Orr spokeswoman Kelly Quinn.

Critics of electronic voting say Sequoia's Venezuelan ownership isn't as much an issue as the industry's penchant for secrecy.

Doug Jones, a computer science professor and voting systems examiner in Iowa, said the company matters less if the voting machinery is open to public scrutiny.

"You care less about them if the system is patently transparent and you can tell whether it's honest," Jones said. "If we had sufficient transparency in our elections systems, the devil himself could build our voting systems and we could still hold honest elections."

I am writing to follow up on my letter of May 4,2006, to Secretary Snow, seeking review
by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States of the acquisition of Sequoia Voting
Systems by Smartmatic, a foreign-owned company. I believe this transaction raises exactly the sort
of foreign ownership issues that CFIUS is best positioned to examine for national security concerns.
As discussed below, publicly reported information about Smartmatic's ownership and about the
vulnerability of electronic voting machines to tampering raises serious concerns. I strongly urge
CFIUS to independently verify the information provided to American officials and the public by
SequoiaISmartmatic, and to take all appropriate measures to safeguard our national security.

It is undisputed that Smartmatic is foreign-owned and it has acquired Sequoia, one of the
three major voting machine companies doing business in the U.S. According to a Sequoia press
release in May 2006 (copy attached) Sequoia voting machiies were used to record over 125 million
votes during the 2004 Presidential election in the United States. As we confront another election,
Americans deserve to know that the Administration has made sure that any foreign ownership of
voting machines poses no national security threat.

Although many press reports have tried, it appears that it is not possible to discern the true
owners of Smartmatic from information available to the public. Smartmatic now acknowledges that
Antonio Mugica, a Venezuelan businessman, has a controlling interest in Smartmatic, but the
company-bas not revealed who all the other Smartmatic owners are. According to the press,
Smartmatic's owners are hidden through a web of off-shore private entities. (See attached articles.)
