Soros Man
Runs Utah Voting Machine Company
Smartmatic Group, an electronic voting firm whose worldwide
headquarters is located in the United Kingdom, will be running the online
balloting process in the Utah Republican Open Caucuses on Tuesday.
The chairman of Smartmatic’s board, Lord
Mark Malloch-Brown, currently serves on the board of George Soros’s Open
Society Foundation and has close ties to the billionaire.
The Wall
Street Journal dubbed the Republican party’s online
adventure on Tuesday as “one of the biggest online votes conducted so
far in the U.S.” and the “largest experiment with online presidential voting
since 2004, when Michigan allowed Democrats to vote in a party caucus via the
Internet.”
The Journal
further
reported: Utah residents will have the option of
casting ballots in the Republican presidential contest using computers,
tablets, and smartphones next week. …
Online
“polls” will be open between 7:00 a.m. and 11 p.m. on March 22.
Voters will get a receipt that will verify that their vote was recorded
correctly. The state party declined to release the number of online voter
registrations that it has received. …
“We
expect all the jurisdictions across the U.S. to take notice and to look at this
experience as something to study and, hopefully, follow,” said Antonio Mugica,
founder and chief executive of Smartmatic Group, an
election-equipment vendor that is running the Utah election.
Mugica addressed security concerns
about online voting, telling the Journal that Smartmatic has security protocols
and backups of the election data should a recount be needed. He said he wasn’t
aware of any security breaches.
The Journal did not cite the
biography of Malloch-Brown, chairman of Smartmatic’s board. That biography is
posted openly on Smartmatic’s website, and shows close associations between
Malloch-Brown and Soros, a major donor to the Democratic Party and hundreds of
liberal and radical-left groups.
