Reasonable Inference
The ASOG Antrim Michigan Forensics Report (December 13, 2020) documented Dominion Voting Systems’ corporate structure: Dominion is Canadian-incorporated, owned by Staple Street Capital, which is in turn owned by UBS Securities LLC. Of UBS Securities’ seven board members, three are identified as Chinese nationals. Dominion’s software is licensed from Smartmatic – described as “Venezuelan-owned and Venezuelan-controlled.” Dominion’s operational server locations were identified as Serbia, Canada, the United States, Spain, and Germany. Under 31 C.F.R. Part 800, CFIUS reviews transactions that could result in “foreign government-controlled” business operations in critical sectors. A Chinese national’s board position in a company that owns an operator of U.S. election infrastructure may constitute a reportable transaction. No public record of CFIUS review of Dominion’s ownership structure has been disclosed. The dual-jurisdiction supply chain exposure – Chinese national board members at the top of the ownership chain, Venezuelan-controlled software at the product layer, and an operational data center in Serbia – creates three independent foreign-nexus vectors simultaneously, none of which has been subjected to CFIUS analysis, OFAC review, or ODNI threat assessment of record.
