Smartmatic’s new ‘Oh-Em-Mar’ machines

THER youth groups are right.  Smartmatic’s new Automated Election System machines should be called “Oh-Em-Mar.”

This Venezuelan marketing company, which now turns out to be a British company after all, will use Optical Mark Reader machines this time. But basically they will still be the PCOS machines that were used in the 2010 and 2013 elections, machines that did not given any transparency or paper trail to make the results from each precinct reliable, credible and verifiable.
