“Dec. 15, 2003: Omar Montilla, a top official in Venezuela’s Ministry of Science and Technology, joins Bizta’s board of directors,” according to a June 12, 2004 Miami Herald investigative report.
By now the regime owns 28 percent of Bizta R&D subsidiary of the U.S. company Bizta Corporation and is the company’s largest shareholder.
Bizta R&D designs the election software for Smartmatic. Both are teamed to create the electronic voting system “Smartmatic Automated Election Systems” (SAES) for the Hugo Chavez regime.

2. Why would the Venezuelan government be the largest shareholder of such a tiny company unless it had a compelling interest in determining its direction?
