Wikileaks has a number of hits on Smartmatic. The first one looks interesting but when I open it I get gibberish. https://search.wikileaks.org/advanced?page=2&q=smartmatic
Here's an old NYT article on Smartmatic. I can't seen to bring it up on the Wayback Machine, so can't say if it has been changed. https://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/29/washington/29ballot.html
Here's a patent lawsuit against Smartmatic. https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.ded.66128/gov.uscourts.ded.66128.1.0.pdf
