The Venezuelan-owned Smartmatic Corporation is a
riddle both in ownership and operation, complicated by the
fact that its machines have overseen several landslide (and
contested) victories by President Hugo Chavez and his
supporters. The electronic voting company went from a small
technology startup to a market player in just a few years,
catapulted by its participation in the August 2004 recall
referendum. Smartmatic has claimed to be of U.S. origin, but
its true owners -- probably elite Venezuelans of several
political strains -- remain hidden behind a web of holding
companies in the Netherlands and Barbados. The Smartmatic
machines used in Venezuela are widely suspected of, though
never proven conclusively to be, susceptible to fraud. The
company is thought to be backing out of Venezuelan electoral
events, focusing now on other parts of world, including the
United States via its subsidiary, Sequoia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominion_Voting_Systems )

Smartmatic acquired the U.S voting machine company Sequoia
Voting Systems on March 8, 2005, Mugica reported. All U.S.
election machinery is assembled in New York, he said. Mugica
noted that while their U.S. operations were important, more
than half their sales were outside of Venezuela and the
United States.
