I still believe Smartmatic and Dominion are separately operating but both independently bad. This 2004 Venezuelan election had nothing to do with Dominion from everything I have found (google cache/wikileaks). This was Smartmatics first election where they retrofit some lotto machines. They may have based the election software off the Diebold system- not sure. They then bought Sequoia in 2005, the California based company founded in the 70’s who became famous for the 2000 hanging chads. They wanted to get into the US election market- which is likely why they “based” their Venezuelan operates company out of FL. Smartmatic decided to sell to withdraw from the 2007 CFIUS investigation. How they go back into the US election... I’m not sure.

Now there have been some instances where smartmatic may have operated some dominion machines or had some licensing overlap. I believe the 2010 election in the Philippines this happened and there was a lawsuit. I believe that these two companies have the same racket- but are essentially competitors. They could both be bribing officials and promising election victories, and probably are. Think about it... if one is doing it you have no choice but to compete.

There is some more digging for us all to do, but I wanted to put this out there since everyone seems to automatically Conclude this is one company behind this and we have to link Dominion and Smartmatic. You don’t want to hinge your entire argument on an instance where these two companies are working together when that might not be the case.
