Why We Vote Ep. 145: Venezuelan Whistleblower Testimony and Dominion’s Deep Connections

CannCon and Ashe in America dive into newly released sworn testimony from a Venezuelan whistleblower detailing Smartmatic’s origins, its ties to Dominion, and how both systems share the same DNA behind modern election software. The hosts break down shocking claims about Chinese-made components, deleted log files, “trusted builds,” and the manipulation of ballot images, all pointing to systemic vulnerabilities. Drawing connections between past investigations, Smartmatic’s influence in Venezuela and the Philippines, and current U.S. voting infrastructure, they discuss what this means for election integrity and accountability in America. With humor, skepticism, and plenty of technical insight, CannCon and Ashe unpack a complex web of fraud, cover-ups, and digital sleight of hand that every voter should hear.
