Exactly! They didn’t have the cash to bribe their way to control. But they also didn’t have the open door for US-based manpower to run compromise operations, as the Chinese have done. There was an advantage to a Cold War - tight control on foreign personnel in the homeland. The Soviets didn’t have the internet either.

He said that to Pompeo when P let slip that Covid was “a live exercise.”

There was a big investigation of Philadelphia’s purchase of ES&S election systems last year, conducted by the City Controller’s office. The public report makes for interesting reading.
I was going to post some research regarding ES&S. Unlike Dominion, they’ve hardly received comment. Their contracts have a redacted section dealing with third party licensed software, so the question is: are they licensing Smartmatic code blocks?
