There are concerns about the security of electronic voting machines, as they can potentially be hacked without detection. While there is no evidence of this happening, it cannot be proven that it hasn't or won't happen in the future. Instances of machine errors have been reported, such as recording extra votes for a candidate or subtracting votes instead of adding them. It is unknown how many instances went unnoticed and what impact they had on elections. Legislation is being proposed to require a paper trail for every electronic machine, similar to ATM receipts, to ensure transparency and allow for verification. An investigation is also being requested to assess the effectiveness of voting machines and improve election systems.

At the Capitol, we witnessed the hacking of outdated election machines, which are used in many states. This raises concerns as only three companies control these machines, making them vulnerable to hacking. Researchers have discovered serious security flaws, including backdoors, in voting machines used by 43% of American voters. These companies refuse to answer questions about their cybersecurity practices, and the larger companies avoid answering any questions altogether. Additionally, five states lack a paper trail, making it impossible to verify the legitimacy of the voting machine results. This undermines the notion of cybersecurity in our elections.

A Microsoft certified security expert provided evidence of a Dominion vote counting machine in a swing state with a wireless card connected to a thermostat's wireless network. The IP address traced back to a city in China, linked to a Chinese corporation involved in questionable dealings with American politicians. There is a thick binder of documented evidence showing foreign access and interference in the election, including public statements from the FBI and DHS warning about Iran's involvement. The evidence is undeniable, and those questioning it should argue with the FBI and DHS. The photographs and IPs provide conclusive proof of foreign interference in the voting systems.

A group of Venezuelan businessmen bought an American company that supplies electronic voting machines and counts votes, but the government has not reviewed the sale. Smartmatic, based in Boca Raton, provides voting machines in local US elections, but only has a few employees in Florida and is a labyrinth of international holding companies owned by Venezuelan businessmen. Electronic voting experts claim it's nearly impossible to verify if a proprietary system is tamper-proof. Voter watchdog groups and some in Congress are calling for a full review of the ownership of all electronic voting companies to determine if it poses a risk to US elections. The US Treasury Department would not confirm if a review was underway on Smartmatic. Watchdog groups question why US voting machines would be under the control of citizens of another country, especially one with a suspect election process. One congressman wrote to the Secretary of Treasury asking for a review of Smartmatic's ownership, which he says is offshore and murky.

Do you believe votes were manipulated electronically in favor of Joe Biden? Yes, I do. I saw reports of votes switching from Trump to Biden—around 12,000 and 20,000 votes in two instances, with Trump's numbers decreasing exactly as Biden's increased. I suspected something was wrong, especially with claims of intelligence involvement. The Dominion Company, a Canadian firm, stored its records in Germany and Spain, raising concerns about foreign interference. It seems there may have been CIA involvement, as U.S. forces seized servers in Germany, which were linked to CIA operations. Now, those servers are with the FBI, which makes me uneasy, but at least they are in American hands.

A report discusses the possibility that a firm owned by Venezuela could take over one of the United States’ top voting machine companies, sparking concerns that American democracy could be affected by Venezuelan interests. The report notes that Hugo Chávez’s Venezuela moved to the left and critics claim the deal puts democracy “for sale.” In Chicago, about 19,000 electronic voting machines were used in the city and Cook County’s primary on March 21, and the US company that makes the machines, Sequoia, had been bought in 2005 by Smartmatic, a private company primarily owned by Venezuelan businessmen. When Chicago encountered problems with the machines, a dozen Venezuelan employees were on hand to assist. Chicago officials expressed anger, with one stating that American elections ought to be run by American companies and American citizens, not Venezuelan nationals. Smartmatic is technically based in Boca Raton, Florida, but its president, Jack Blaine, testified to the Chicago City Council. Fewer than a dozen Smartmatic employees work in Florida; the majority are based in Venezuela. Watchdog groups question why US voting machines would be under the control of citizens of another country, particularly a country whose own election process is described as highly suspect. They view it as a national security issue, arguing that companies owned by non-US entities should not have access to US elections. The Treasury Department is expected to monitor sales of US companies to overseas investors where national security is a concern, such as in the Dubai ports deal. Some in Congress are demanding an investigation. Speaker 2 notes several unanswered questions about Smartmatic, including offshore ownership and murkiness, and says someone should know who owns it. They believe the government should know. There is concern about a potential risk to the democratic process. A request was made to the Secretary of the Treasury to review the ownership of Smartmatic/Sequoia; Treasury acknowledged awareness of the sale but could not confirm whether it had been reviewed. Some in Congress and voter watchdog groups urged a clearer explanation than what had been provided. There is criticism of the Treasury Department as allegedly incompetent, with claims that they have halted more than 1,500 reviews while not confirming whether the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States reviewed this voting-machine sale. The speakers express frustration at the lack of a clear answer, calling for action from officials, including possibly John Snow, and promising to continue pursuing the matter. Representatives and media figure Kitty are credited with advancing the inquiry and expressing appreciation for the congresswoman’s efforts, while urging White House involvement to provide an answer by Monday evening.

A report discusses a deal that could allow a Venezuela-owned firm to take over one of the United States’ top voting machine companies, as Hugo Chávez-led Venezuela shifts the region leftward. Critics claim this places democracy “for sale” without action. The focus centers on the Chicago and Cook County primary on March 21, which used about 19,000 electronic voting machines. The machines’ manufacturer, Sequoia, was bought in 2005 by Smartmatic, a private company primarily owned by Venezuelan businessmen. When Chicago experienced problems with the machines, a dozen Venezuelan employees were on hand to assist. Chicago officials argued that American elections should be run by American companies and American citizens, not Venezuelan nationals. Smartmatic is technically based in Boca Raton, Florida; however, the company’s president testified to the Chicago City Council. Fewer than a dozen Smartmatic employees work in Florida, while the majority of workers are based in Venezuela. Watchdog groups questioned why US voting machines would be under the control of citizens of another country, especially a country with a voting process deemed highly suspect. They framed the issue as a national security concern, arguing that companies owned by non-US nationals should not have access to US elections. The treasury department’s role in monitoring sales of US companies to overseas investors—where national security is a concern, similar to the Dubai ports deal and the CFIUS process—was highlighted. Some in Congress demanded an investigation. In Smartmatic’s case, questions remained regarding ownership, which led to a letter to the secretary of the treasury requesting a review of the ownership. The process is described as offshore and murky, with unclear ownership details. It was asserted that the government should have clarity on this matter. reporters attempted to verify whether the 2005 Sequoia sale had been reviewed by CFIUS. Treasury officials acknowledged awareness of the sale but could not confirm whether it had been reviewed. Congress members and voter watchdog groups pressed for a clearer answer and a formal review. The dialogue included strong criticisms of the Treasury Department, with speakers accusing it of incompetence for reportedly stopping over 1,500 reviews while failing to provide a clear answer about whether CFIUS reviewed the voting-machine sale. The discussion noted the need for accountability and information, including potential outreach to John Snow, then the Treasury secretary, to obtain a definitive explanation for the public. Ultimately, the speakers emphasized that the issue deserved examination and pledged to continue pursuing answers, praising a Congresswoman for her efforts and calling on the White House to provide an explanation by Monday evening.

The speaker is alarmed by events in the 2020 US presidential election, drawing parallels to the 2013 Venezuelan election where Smartmatic software allegedly changed votes. Vote counting abruptly stopped in five states using Dominion software while Donald Trump was ahead. During the night, vote reporting went offline, and when it resumed, there was a significant shift favoring Joe Biden. According to the speaker, votes in 27 or 28 states counted by Dominion are sent outside the US to Germany and Spain, where Smartmatic, a company founded in Venezuela in 2005 to fix elections, does the counting. Smartmatic has a history of election interference in Venezuela and Argentina, and allegedly botched an election in Chicago. The speaker claims Smartmatic stopped vote counting and subtly switched votes, around 10 per district, which was discovered in Antrim County.

All votes in The United States Of America are counted in The United States Of America. There is no evidence that any machine has been manipulated by a foreign power. Recounts are consistent with the initial count, confirming that the systems used in the twenty twenty election performed as expected. The American people should have 100% confidence in their vote. A lawyer representing the president claimed that Dominion voting machines ran an algorithm to take votes from President Trump and flip them to President Biden. Votes in Georgia were cast on paper, counted by a machine, and recounted by hand, with consistent outcomes. If there was an algorithm flipping votes, it didn't work. The more likely explanation is that there was no algorithm and that security controls protected the systems from misbehavior.

Antonio Mujica and his partner Alfredo Enzola received a small business loan from the Venezuelan government just months before the recall election. Venezuelan corporate registration documents show the government owned 28% of the stock of Bizta, a company they started that adapted voting software for the Smartmatic machines in the 2004 elections. The same document shows Chavez government minister Omar Montillo was on Bizta’s board of directors. The Chavez government gave Bizta, Smartmatic, and another company a $91,000,000 contract to run voting machines for the February election. The next year, the owners of Smartmatic, primarily Venezuelan businessmen, bought Sequoia, one of the top electronic voting system companies in the United States, for $16,000,000. Smartmatic is a labyrinth international holding company structure. Smartmatic Group NV of Curacao Netherlands Antilles owns Smartmatic International BV of Amsterdam, which owns Smartmatic Corporation of Florida, which bought Sequoia Voting Systems of California, USA. When Smartmatic bought the US voting machine companies, the US government did not review the sale. Many experts say those voting machines were manipulated in Venezuela to give president Hugo Chavez a victory. Polls done by The US firm Penn shown in Berlin had Chavez losing 41% to 59%. But the next day, Chavez declared victory, reversing the score, saying he won 59% of the vote. “Everything was computed in the favor of the government.” So the only explanation is that the smart mathematic machines had been programmed in that way. A mathematician crunched the numbers on the Venezuelan election. “All these machines talk to a central computer and report on their results. And in that mechanism, as they communicate with the center, the central machine can report anything.” Smartmatic is technically based in Boca Raton, Florida. But the president of the company, Jack Blaine, testified to the Chicago City Council. Fewer than a dozen Smartmatic employees work in Florida. The majority of the workers are based in Venezuela.
