Voting technology providers Smartmatic and Dominion are attempting to fight false election narratives promoted by Donald Trump and his allies.

Ed Smith still remembers the weeks after Election Day 2020. The elections compliance expert worked for voting technology provider Smartmatic at the time: a mostly low-profile company that had supplied ballot-marking devices to Los Angeles County. As the polls reported their vote counts, though, then-President Donald Trump lost to challenger Joe Biden — and Trump launched an all-out war on the results. Companies like Smartmatic found themselves under siege.

State governments operate fact-check pages that “pre-bunk” election misconceptions. Election authorities have emphasized ways that voters can observe the system — like livestreams of ballot processing facilities. Local election offices also run extensive public testing of voting machines in the weeks and months leading up to the election. Still, convincing voters that they can trust the system can be tricky — especially when it means proving something isn’t happening.
