Third World Country Bans Voting Machine Firm to Secure Their Elections

Man voting on a new touch screen machine for the first time.

Sometime between the date of the 2020 election and January 6th, we can remember asking why America doesn’t have elections that are as secure as the ones in Botswana or Sudan. Can’t we do better than Uganda?

Apparently… we can’t. We’re stuck with these electronic voting machines and counting machines and mail-in voting for the foreseeable future.

Other countries that care about democracy are not as stupid about this as we are. For example, the Philippines just banned Smartmatic voting machines in their country.

Smartmatic, you probably remember, is one of the two voting machine companies that are trying to sue the My Pillow Guy, Mike Lindell, into oblivion. The other company is Dominion Voting Systems.

Smartmatic machines have been used in the Philippines since 2010. But a recent scandal has led the Philippines Commission on Elections to ban the machines going forward. Smartmatic machines won’t be used during the 2024 elections there.

 

The head of the Commission on Elections has been a guy named Andres Bautista for many years. From 2010 through 2016 (at least), the Philippines took bids from voting machine companies to try to save money. Andres Bautista is accused of taking a bribe from Smartmatic in 2016, in order to ensure that the company won the contract that year.

It turns out that Andres Bautista was under investigation by the US government for violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, conspiracy, wire fraud, and money laundering. As a result of that investigation, the government in the Philippines discovered that Bautista had set up a shell company back in 2016 and that Smartmatic transferred a bribe payment to Bautista through that. Who does this guy think he is? Joe Biden?

The Biden regime, oddly enough, is asking the Philippines for financial records of transactions involving Smartmatic and Bautista. The Commission on Elections wrote:

“It is noteworthy that Bautista, who served as the Chairman of the Commission, was formally charged in September 2023, in connection with allegations of receiving bribes in exchange for awarding a contract for election machines to Smartmatic Corp.”

Bautista denies any wrongdoing, and he has not had his day in court yet. But that’s not the point. The fact that he has been charged with taking bribes from Smartmatic on more than one occasion is enough to taint the electoral process in the Philippines. As a result, the Commission on Elections banned Smartmatic machines going forward.

“The charges against Smartmatic and former Chairman Bautista are of public knowledge and tend to cause speculation and distrust of the electoral process,” the Commission’s report continued.

“Given the gravity of allegations related to bribery and compromised procurement processes, as independently determined by foreign bodies, the Commission recognizes the imminent threat to the strength and integrity of our democratic processes.”

Just the idea that public in the Philippines would lose trust in their elections over this scandal—which is only allegations at this point—was enough for the country to give Smartmatic the boot. Don’t you wish that any elected officials in our own country felt the same way?

It’s not as if the Philippines is some bastion of integrity. It’s in the bottom 25% of the poorest countries on earth. It’s impoverished and like all impoverished, Third World developing nations, there’s a lot of corruption there. But they just took a bigger step toward securing their 2024 elections than most Republican legislatures here in the United States have since the 2020 election was stolen from us.

Some states have taken concrete steps to shore up their elections since then, but we’re still seeing a lot of problems. The machines break down in Republican districts during EVERY election, as we saw in Maricopa, Yuma, and Mohave Counties in Arizona last year. Just last month, machines were caught switching votes in several counties in Pennsylvania. No one in either party really trusts the electronic machines.

Yet when was the last time you heard a sitting Member of Congress say that we ought to ban these machines in order to restore trust in our elections? Why don’t we ban mail-in voting while we’re at it? Why don’t we require states to count all the votes on election night by hand, like we did for 250 years before these machines came along?

It tells you a lot about the direction the US is heading when Third World countries and banana republics care more about the integrity of their elections than our leaders do.

  1. IMMEDIATELY BAN “ALL” machines used in counting votes in “ANY PUBLIC ELECTION” Held within the UNITED STATES. Ban all “mail in” ballots except military personnel and government employees in foreign countries. Hand count all ballots, with MILITARY OBSERVERS, at every step of the process. Only registered voters with photo ID’s will be allowed to vote. Elderly voters will be brought to poling areas in wheel chairs with their caregiver attendees in attendance for any physical help that they may need, otherwise they will not be allowed to vote. Final tallies by states will be totaled within three days. Final election results will be published on the fourth day AFTER the election to guarantee 100 + % accuracy. Any violation of election laws and their ensuing procedures will “automatically”result in the official charge of “TREASON” with its mandatory punishment. Absolutely no prison sentences allowed. Discipline is discipline!! Just do it!!!! This will PUT AN END TO ALL ELECTION VIOLATIONS – and “ENSURE” election integrity!! MAKE AMERICA PROUD!!!!

      1. Exactly stated. Why do politicians not root for and care about election integrity? It’s unfortunate that those who bring issues to the fore about dubious election results get labeled as insurrectionists, for the destruction of democracy, etc. when all they want is accountability at the ballot box, which is the foundation of our democracy. As a country of intellectuals and well-informed citizenry, constitutionally attuned (supposed to be), and assumed leaders of the free world, why can the USA not live up to the basic standards of a “government of the people, by the people, and for the people?” Wake up, America and be the light of this darkened world of political and other corruptive algorithms in the guise of fairness, justice, etc. This country is slowly and gently being destroyed by its enemies.

        1. Great commented opinion. Democrats have caused all this dishonesty and attacking Trump for doing what his oath of office demands, that is to maintain integrity in our election system and question any irregularities in counting votes. There are simply too many voting machine manufactures involved in our elections, why? who changed that and why? Up until 2000 we always had one machine manufactured in Omaha and was controlled and distributed by the US Gov. Who changed it up and why?

          1. Very good question. It’s about time we go back to those days. You can bet the reason it was changed is someone received a kick back for it. I think voter ID should be mandatory in all 50 states, too. That would stop all the illegal voting. You should also have an ID for mail in ballots and they should have to be notarized.

      2. I just got paid 7268 Dollars Working off my Laptop this month. And if you think that’s cool, My Divorced friend has twin toddlers and made 0ver $ 13892 her first m0nth. It feels so good making so much money when other people have to work for so much less.
        This is what I do………> > > https://dailyincome95.blogspot.com/

    1. A huge Amen, David!! I do believe the only way to have true and accurate elections is to ban all machines and all mail in ballots except for our heroes over seas.
      Just, doggone, hand count with both side observers in attendance, otherwise, we are doomed to illegal elections. Citizens demand truthful election results!!

    2. Too many existing office holders are afraid that they will be voted out of office if these perfectly stated requirements for elections are implemented!!!

      1. I agree with you wholeheartedly and while we’re at, let’s impose new law that limits terms of the House and Senate, and stop them from being able to retire at the same amount of money they are now drawing. You do realize that no matter how many years they’re in office, they leave with the same amount they are currently making?? No wonder the US is going broke, and Congress becomes millionaires. I wish they had to survive on what I make every month, if they did they would get off their duffs and start passing decent legislation, instead of all the arguing that goes on!

        1. Jennifer, I agree with you that those elected officials who get elected are not poor but when they do minnimum amount in term candidacy the leave very wealthy in money and benefits. As for term limits I would support correcting the voter registers in most States would eliminate voter fraud and then address term limits

    3. It’s should be counted manually with 0 mail ins as those are proven paths to stolen votes/elections. O untended ballot boxes. No mass hand-ins of votes ever!

    4. I agree with every word on the Bans,and hope the penaltys for treason are adjudicated without any thought of what Party the person may be in. Democrats seem to get off much easier nowadays than conservatives do.I know it’s hard to ask for all our politicians and government workers to be truthful in their duties. Hopefully one day will come when most of them are honest.

      1. I agree but it will never happen all this crooked crap has went on so long it is now a way of politics. How will it be changed, everyone talks but nothing happens. Things just get worse. I have lost faith in all the ones now in politics, some are worse than others. This administration has no honest ones, they all hate our country. This is the best we have to run our country, WE Are IN Deep TROUBLE!!the old marine

    5. Why, why ,why ! Everyone knows that the 2020 election was CORRUPT , but why does everyone elect not to talk about it ? What happened to the movie ,2000 mules ? There was video of the CORRUPTION , but where is all the video ? I am afraid of 2024 election being another STEAL by CORRUPT PEOPLE IN POWER ! AND THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA is part of the CORRUPT POWERFUL PROCESS !!

    6. I agree and the death penalty for treason should be the punishment for illegal voting and if illegals are caught voting the same punishment should be administered !

    7. Can we please make this a nationwide mandatory measure without exception. Bring in the military, with weapons locked and loaded and the authority to arrest anyone caught violating election laws or procedures such as running ballots thru counting machines multiple times, etc., etc., etc.

    8. ALL votes to be hand counted, starting Election Day until ALL are counted. Four day, maximum.

  2. We are not a DEMOCRACY – we are a REPUBLIC. It is amazing to me we have all Politicians, Journalists, Actors, saying Democracy. In fact, indoctrination is ensuring
    Schools at all LEVELS do not teach history – they will not tell the truth!

  3. Third world reaction towards unreliable voting machines is undeniable proof of our 2020 election interference! Questioning voting machine reliability should be paramount to insuring 2024 elections!!

  4. How does the president get to pass terrible laws without the congress having a say in it. Biden isn’t part of the legislative branch! Executive orders written by the communist are destroying our country with the help of Biden, Obama, soros,Bill gates, Bloomberg, and a myriad of other traitors to our country. We need to get control of these traitors and restore the freedoms guaranteed by the constitution. We have enough prisons to hold most of the traitors to America.

  5. Smartmatic and dominion. Endorsed by criminal democrats. By yours today.
    Make sure you have the latest firmware cheat. No money back guarantee

  6. its as simple as this, if soros or gates doesnt like the country, GET THE FUCK OUT!!~!!!!! cause we are not changing for you. and go buy another number 3 mixing bowl for your next haircut.

  7. I just got paid 7268 Dollars Working off my Laptop this month. And if you think that’s cool, My Divorced friend has twin toddlers and(Q) made 0ver $ 13892 her first m0nth. It feels so good making so much money when other people have to work for so much less.
    This is what I do………> > > https://readycash3452.blogspot.com/

  8. I, Am,. Pretty ?. Shure !!! This !!! Is,. ((. Right !!! ))… Please ??? !!! ((. America !!! … )). Let,s !!! Do !!! The !!! (( Right ?.!!! )). Thing !!! With,. Our !!! Heart,s !!! … To,. Fair !!! And,. ((. Honest !!! Election,s !!! … )). In,. ((. America !!! … )). Thank !!! You !!! … United !!! State,s !!! Citizen. !!! //. Carolyn. S. Yousuf . Monday. 12/11/23.

  9. Most people who feed from the FEDERAL benefit trouff will not vote for those who oppose these benefits. The saying DON’T BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU is well read into politics.

  10. We all know that democrat and rino are behind everything. We can just read about all these new laws that are passed. That was part of DEMOCRAT POLITICIANS WHO CREATED them. 500 page and only 24 hours to read everything is NOT WORKING PROPERLY! Then we all know it was PELOSI AND REID who was the SENATE MAJORITY when Bush Jr won the PRESIDENT! Al Gore protesting FLORIDA ELECTED! Where the charge Against him? Hillary in 2016? These two decided since they had control of CONGRESS they were going to CHANGE THE WAY THE VOTE WERE COUNTED! They brought up DOMINION! Given him a million dollars contract to CREATED A VOTE COUNTING MACHINE. NOW TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION HE WAS A DEMOCRAT SUPPORTERS AND DONOR! He even said in 2017 he HATE TRUMP! AND WOULD DO ANYTHING TO STOP HIM IN 2020! Not my words! But his! Was played on the NEWS and run on SOCIAL media. So now democrat needed another favor! Guess who that was? DR. FAUCI , he was to put fear into America people. By claiming there was a dangerous virus in the air! You ALL SAW VIDEO OF PELOSI WALKING AROUND CHINATOWN AND OTHER DEMOCRAT POLITICIANS IN NEW YORK! All this was going on as Dr. FAUCI WAS WORKING TO PUSH HIS IDEA ON CDC. With the help of the MEDIA! But let take into consideration the time OBAMA WAS PRESIDENT IN 2010! Now remember the SWINE FLU? Obama order ALL VENTILATION MACHINE TO GOVERNMENT IN BLUE STATE! Why? He did NOT ORDER ANY MASK SUPPLY AFTER ALL WERE GIVEN OUT TO GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES! That was a TEST RUN CREATED BY DR. FAUCI FOR DEMOCRAT! They saw this as their way of STOPPING TRUMP FROM WINNING AGAIN! With the help from EVERY DEMOCRAT GOVERNOR IN EVERY STATE. THEY SHUT DOWN SMALL BUSINESS THAT WERE OWN BY REPUBLICANS VOTER! Only jobs kept open were OWN BY CORPORATE THAT DONATED TO DEMOCRAT PARTY! JUST AS THE BIG PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY AND SOCIAL MEDIA! Prove me wrong? Now who were on the receiving end of those VACCINE SHOT? BASICALLY ELDERS IN NURSING HOMES

  11. Why do you think swamp won’t ban them from here? Only way swamp wins is by cheating, point proven. Anyone involved in the rigging of elections should have to give up their voting rights and citizenship ASAP. Remember no one is above the law.
