Smartmatic defends the use of voting machines


Antonio Mujica, president of Smartmatic, said the National Electoral Council has to inform voters about the operation of the voting machines that are to be used during August 15 presidential recall referendum.

But he indicated that "voting is extremely easy," ensuring that over 20,000 people who have participated in the demonstrations to show the operation of the balloting machines have agreed that this process is much more easy than earlier voting mechanisms implemented in Venezuela.

Mujica told local news TV network Globovisión that the technology Smartmatic is using on voting machines was designed so that the people's vote is reflected both in the machine's screen and in a print ballot, and is transmitted to the National Electoral Council.
