SOROS CONNECTS TO SMARTMATICS WHICH IS THE PARENT COMPANY OF DOMINION

https://apnews.com/article/8607371032

CLAIM: Billionaire philanthropist George Soros owns Smartmatic voting machines. Don’t throw your vote away if you live in a state that uses them. Ask for a paper ballot. Under federal law the polling place must provide one.

AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. Soros, who donates to liberal political causes, does not own Smartmatic, a company that specializes in voting technology.

THE FACTS: A post circulating on Facebook featuring a photo of Soros and titled “Defeat Election Fraud” falsely claims he owns the company and names 16 states as places that use them. Three of the states _ Michigan, Missouri and Washington _ were conducting primaries on Tuesday. Similar false claims have circulated previously with posts dating as far back as 2016.

Michigan has three voting system vendors approved for the state, which are Dominion Voting Systems, Election Systems and Software and Hart InterCivic.

Samira Saba, a spokeswoman for Smartmatic, told The Associated Press in an email that Los Angeles County is currently the company’s only client in the U.S.

While the chairman of SmartMatics and the SGO Group, Mark Malloch-Brown, serves on the Open Society Foundations Global Board founded by George Soros SmartMatics is not owned by Soros himself, despite what the post circulating widely on social media suggested.

“Defeat election fraud! On election day, if your voting machine is a SmartMatic brand, Demand a paper ballot. George Soro’s now owns SmartMatic. You have the right to require a paper ballot, and under Federal Law the polling place must provide one for you. Don’t throw your vote away,” the post stated.

The company’s website, smartmatic.com, noted that “George Soros does not have and has never had any ownership stake in Smartmatic.”

Smartmatic took part in its first U.S. election during the 2005-2006 election cycle where it offered its services to 16 states, according to their website.

George Soros Linked Company Supplying Ballot Machines To 16 States

Critics on the right are growing concerned as more information comes to light about a U.K. based company with ties to George Soros that is supplying the U.S. with voting machines for the upcoming election. Smartmatic, whose Chairman sits on the board of Soros’ Open Society Foundation, is believed to be contributing over 50,000 voting machines to 16 states for the November election. Skeptics are concerned about possible meddling in the election process as Soros’ tight connection with the Clintons and other high profile Democratic leaders continues to be revealed by Wikileaks with the emails shared from John Podesta’s hacked gmail account.

Smartmatic is a privately held Venezuelan tech and electronic voting company headquartered in London. A flow chart on Smartmatic’s website showed how the company contributed machines to the United States for elections between 2006 and 2015 with “57,000 voting and counting machines deployed” and “35 million voters assisted.”

Since news broke that their machines would be used in the upcoming 2016 Presidential election, the company removed the flow chart and released a statement saying that “Smartmatic will not be deploying its technology in any U.S. county for the upcoming 2016 U.S. Presidential elections.”

The company also stated on its website that “Smartmatic has no ties to political parties or groups in any country and abides by a stringent code of ethics that forbids the company to ever donate to any political campaigns of any kind.” They also added in bold that “George Soros does not have and has never had any ownership stake in Smartmatic.”'

A spokesperson for the National Association of Secretaries of State told Lifezette that “Smartmatic is not on a list of federally-certified providers for election systems” and that “officials in several states’ have contested that their equipment came from Smartmatic.”

Smartmatic Chairman Mark Malloch-Brown is a former U.N. official and current board member of the Open Society Foundation. The Open Society Foundation is a grantmaking network which financially supports civil society groups around the world and aims to advance justice, education, public health, and independent media. Since its founding, the Foundation has reported expenditures of over $11 billion dollars.

Soros’ ties to the Democrats worry skeptics that believe the multibillionaire is using his money to influence American politics. Just last week, emails between Podesta and Soros’ top people were leaked to show the two sides colluding on SCOTUS picks shortly after Justice Scalia died. George Soros also had his personal information, including his private cell phone number, exposed through the John Podesta Wikileaks emails.

Smartmatic Chairman Connected to Transitional Government Calls for Venezuela

https://www.telesurenglish.net/news/Smartmatic-Chairman-Connected-to-Transitional-Government-Calls-for-Venezuela-20170804-0021.html

Questions are being asked about the links between a former British minister of state, a U.S. billionaire and the Venezuelan National Constituent Assembly vote count.

London-based Smartmatic CEO Antonio Mugica claimed on Wednesday that the turnout had been tampered with.

Mugica said it had been inflated by about a million votes, but did not elaborate on how the company arrived at their conclusion.

Asked why he did not alert the Venezuelan government, he said: “I guess we probably thought that the authorities would not be sympathetic to what we had to say.”

Venezuela's National Electoral Council said over 8 million people had cast their ballots and disputed his claims.

Mark Malloch Brown, a minister of state at the Foreign and Commonwealth office under the former U.K. Prime Minister Gordon Brown, is Chairman of Smartmatic.

The British Lord is also Chairman of the International Crisis Group, which has called for a "transitional government" in Venezuela.

"Restoration of constitutional rule probably will require formation of a transitional government of national unity under a mutually acceptable interim president," says the Power without the People: Averting Venezuela’s Breakdown, a document published by the organization on July 19.

In addition, the briefing note calls for the heavy involvement of the Organization of American States in the suggested negotiations, which would also include a "transitional justice" scheme to give government officials "safe passage to exile."

"Carrots as well as sticks are needed."

Formed in the 1990s, the International Crisis Group aims "to prevent wars and shape policies that will build a more peaceful world," through lobbying and "advocacy."

The Washington-based organization receives most of its funds from North American and European governments, as well as private foundations.

The Morning Star reports that Lord Malloch-Brown has close links to the Hungarian-born U.S. billionaire NGO kingpin George Soros.

Malloch Brown was a member of the Soros advisory committee on Bosnia from 1993-94.

As the United Nations Development Fund administrator in 2002, he suggested the agency work alongside Soros’s Open Society Institute.

He also served briefly as the UN deputy secretary-general in 2006.

In May 2007, Malloch Brown was made vice-president of Soros’s tax-haven hedge fund the Quantum Fund, but resigned in September that year when he joined Gordon Brown’s short-lived government.

Soros also serves on the Board of the International Crisis Group, and his Open Society organization is one of the group's main funders.

And he is a major financier of New York-based Human Rights Watch.

Soros pledged a challenge grant of US$100 million over 10 years in 2010 to the non-governmental organization which has been a long-standing and fierce critic of Venezuela’s socialist government.
