DEVOLUTION, CISA & EISCC

- 1990s: Jeffrey Dean likely  "cooking" elections in King Co WA - where Dean Logan was the Director of Records and Elections
https://www.seattleweekly.com/news/election-pros-are-cons/

- 2004: Dean Logan leaves after election scandal to become Director of Elections in LA CO - where he remains today (working closely with Smartmatic, who designed the touch screen election systems they use)

- 2011: Washington State adopts statewide mail-in voting (prolly COMP'D, given its history)

- 2017: King, Pierce and Snohomish Counties in WA adopt ClearVote/ClearBallot system 
 >>/10289/
But is ClearBallot its own company or an extension of Smartmatic, thru Edwin Barkley Smith, who wrote a letter to Colorado SoS on their behalf?
 >>/10298/
 >>/10287/,  >>/10288/,  >>/10296/,  >>/10299/
Unclear!!
ClearBallot needs a bigger DIG. Still obscure. Even the website is EXTREMELY general - even when they replaced the CEO, there's almost zero info on the guy. It's like he came outta nowhere. from Resource thread:
  >>/10364/ Jordan Esten Promoted to CEO of Clear Ballot

- But turns out that Edwin Smith 
* has a fulltime position at Smartmatic
* participates on the  Elections Infrastructure Sector Coordinating Council [EISCC] on behalf of Smartmatic

- Also turns out that the "Clear Ballot Group" is ALSO one of the founding members of EISCC:
Election Infrastructure Subsector Coordinating Council Charter://www.cisa.gov › default › files › publications
https://www.cisa.gov/sites/default/files/publications/election_infrastructure_subsector_specific_plan.pdf

- As DEVOLUTION PART 5 reveals, EISCC - which consists of all the major elections systems - has a LOT of power when it comes to CISA policy. 


so how did a company founded in 2009 to do "audits" develop a vote-by-mail system capable of handling elections for both NYC and Seattle within a few years? And also become one of the founding members of EISCC?
