Sequoia ES&S Chuck Hagel, Nebraska’s senior U.S. Senator

Sequoia is the mafia-affiliated one that got in trouble in 1999 for bribing Commissioners of Elections to buy their machines instead of their competitors. Unlike Diebold and ES&S, though, they're owned by a British company that has no obvious links to the Republican Party or the Christian Reconstruction movement.


ES&S is the company that Chuck Hagel used to own 20% of? The one whose voting machines gave him a landslide win in majority-black precincts in Omaha where EXIT POLLS had him 15-20 points down? They may be less notorious, but that doesn't mean they're any more honest.



Chuck Hagel, Nebraska’s senior U.S. Senator, was re-elected to his second term in the United States Senate on November 5, 2002 with 83% of the vote. Senator Hagel’s duties include membership on three Senate committees: Foreign Relations; Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs; and Select Committee on Intelligence. Hagel is chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations International Economic Policy, Export and Trade Promotion Subcommittee and the Senate Banking International Trade and Finance Subcommittee. Hagel serves as the Co-chairman of the Congressional-Executive Commission on China.

Prior to his election to the U.S. Senate, Hagel worked in the private sector as the President of McCarthy & Co., an investment banking firm based in Omaha, Nebraska, and served as Chairman of the Board of American Information Systems (AIS). Before joining McCarthy & Co., Hagel was President and Chief Executive Officer of the Private Sector Council (PSC) in Washington, D.C., Deputy Director and Chief Operating Officer of the 1990 Economic Summit of Industrialized Nations (G-7 Summit) and President and Chief Executive Officer of the World USO.
