Remember Smartmatic in our 2020 Election?

Smartmatic Accused of Bribing Election Chief

Roger Piñate, the co-founder of Florida-based Smartmatic, is facing federal charges after prosecutors in Miami accused him of bribing a top Venezuelan election official in an effort to secure favorable treatment in contract disputes.

According to a recent court filing reviewed by the Miami Herald, Piñate is alleged to have transferred ownership of a luxury residence in Caracas to Tibisay Lucena Ramírez, then-president of Venezuela’s National Electoral Council, in what prosecutors describe as an illicit bribe.

Ramírez’s role placed her at the helm of Venezuela’s controversial election system, giving her significant control over electoral outcomes and vendor contracts.

Part of Broader DOJ Case Linked to Philippine Bribery Scheme--The Caracas residence transfer is just the latest in a growing legal case against Piñate, who was indicted last year by a federal grand jury for his role in a $1 million bribery and money laundering scheme related to the 2016 elections in the Philippines.

The Herald notes that prosecutors believe bribery was part of the firm’s regular business strategy, raising red flags about its operations in international elections.

This comes as Smartmatic is still pursuing a $2.7 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News, over claims the network aired false allegations linking the company to fraud in the 2020 U.S. election.

That case is ongoing, with a New York appeals court in January 2025 ruling the case can proceed to trial. Fox News maintains its reporting was newsworthy and protected by the First Amendment.

As you may recall, many believed Smartmatic machines rigged the 2020 results against President Donald Trump.

Smartmatic President Indicted on Bribery and Money Laundering Charges

A federal grand jury in South Florida on Thursday indicted Venezuelan-American executive Roger Piñate, founder and president of the voting-machine company Smartmatic, on charges of involving a bribery and money-laundering scheme used to secure elections contracts in the Philippines.

According to federal prosecutors Piñate, 49, a Boca Ratón resident, along with Jorge Miguel Vasquez, 62, of Davie, and others others were involved in the payment of a $1 million in bribes to the former chairman of the Philippines’ Commission on Elections, Juan Andres Donato Bautista.

“These bribes were allegedly paid to obtain and retain business related to providing voting machines and election services for the 2016 Philippine elections and to secure payments on the contracts, including the release of value added tax payments,” the U.S. Justice Department said in a press release.

I wonder if this will help Fox News in the Smartmatic’s $2.7 billion defamation lawsuit against them over its airing of 2020 election "lies," which alleges executives at the right-wing cable channel’s parent company knew it was spreading false claims. But were they?

If Smartmatic, a multinational company that builds and implements electronic voting system did it in the Phillippines, why is it impossible to believe they didn't do it during the 2020 Election right here in the U.S.A. or even manipulate the machines? Just a question.

Smartmatic facing Money Laundering chages

Smartmatic Voting Company Implicated in Massive Scandal, DOJ Steps In

Voting tech company ‘Smartmatic’ has just come under fire, as new details have emerged on a huge controversy. The company is now facing money laundering charges from the Department of Justice (DOJ) against four executives. Now, former Filipino election official Andres Bautista has been accused of being involved in a bribery scheme with Smartmatic.

These individuals are accused of transferring $4 million to former Filipino election official Andres Bautista “in violation of US money laundering laws.”

It is reported that Bautista was given $199 million in contracts for almost 100,000 voting machines and tabulation services for Philippine Presidential elections back in 2016.

According to the Justice Department filing, Smartmatic executives allegedly used "slush funds," "fake contracts," and fake email accounts to take in bribes under the code word "salsa."

This drama only intensifies when Fox News and other associates were sued by Smartmatic itself over such accusations made against them during the aftermath of the 2020 presidential race.

And Smartmatic has sued everyone: Newsmax, Fox News, OAN, several individual Fox hosts, former Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani, former Trump campaign lawyer Sidney Powell, MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, and others.

Large Scale Election Fraud?

BREAKING NEWS! Director of Smartmatic Makes Stunning Admission About Voting Machines

Smartmatic machines have been helping dictators, tyrants and cunning politicians steal elections since at least 2004. And these machines were used in our elections.

The problem was not only with the Dominion software, even though it was also a major problem in previous elections, and most likely in other previous elections. But the Smartmatic machines are just as bad, if not worse, than the Dominion software.

Even the director of Smartmatic, Antonio Mugica, admitted back in August 2017 that the Smartmatic engine and the software they used generated at least one million additional "phantom votes" for the elections in Venezuela.
