Smartmatic Bribery Indictment, Philippines Election
The U.S. Justice Department indicted three Smartmatic executives for an alleged bribery scheme involving the former top election official in the Philippines, Andy Bautista. Prosecutors claim a slush fund was used to secure a 2016 voting machine contract.
