BREAKING: PA Outlaws “Zuckbucks” Before Midterm Elections
100percentfedup.com ^ | Jul 17, 2022 | Jesse Martin

Pennsylvania has banned public officials from accepting and using money and contributions from nongovernmental entities for election purposes

Pennsylvania is the latest state to ban “Zuckbucks” and nongovernmental funds from using in elections, just in time for the midterms.

Passed through the Republican-led legislature and signed into law by Democrat Governor Tom Wolf, it is now mandated in Pennsylvania that public officials “may not solicit, apply for, enter into a contract for or receive or expend gifts, donations, grants or funding from any individual, business, organization, trust, foundation, or any nongovernmental entity for the registration of voters or the preparation, administration or conducting of an election in [the] Commonwealth.”

Additionally, counties may now apply for election integrity grants for the administration of elections.

In 2020, a Mark Zuckerberg-funded non-profit was used by the Facebook founder to funnel upwards of $400 million into battleground states to alter the results of the elections in favor of Democrats. Pennsylvania Democrats alone gained $25 million in “Zuckbucks.” This influenced the election in favor of Joe Biden.

The states which have taken steps to secure elections against private interests are:

Alabama

Arizona

Arkansas

Florida

Idaho

Kansas (despite an attempted veto by Democrat governor Laura Kelly)

Kentucky

Mississippi

Missouri

Nebraska

North Dakota

Ohio

Oklahoma

Pennsylvania (despite the first attempt being vetoed)

South Carolina

South Dakota

Tennessee

Texas

Virginia

West Virginia

Other states such as Wyoming, Michigan, and Wisconsin have had attempts vetoed.

Pennsylvania has taken a crucial step toward securing its elections against future steals.

> signed into law by Democrat Governor Tom Wolf <

Gov. Wolf is a piece of trash. That he signed this bill makes me wonder just how good the bill is.

Walked by the television my wife was watching this morning, and saw “AP: NO IRREGULARITIES SEEN WITH DROPBOXES IN 2020 ELECTION.”

And people wonder why the media may be the only ones as low in their ratings as Politicians.

Zuckerberg is not looking too great lately.

The rise and fall of Zuck: From the third richest person in the world to 18th, Zuckerberg’s fall reflects that of Facebook's

They’re taking a new route this time.

Zuckerberg donated $800 million mainly to Tiana-Epps Johnson’s Center for Tech & Civil Life which of course has many “partners” who also have “partners”.

Tianna Epps-Johnson

https://www.tianaeppsjohnson.com/
https://www.obama.org/fellowship/tiana-epps-johnson/

Center for Tech and Civic Life - https://www.techandciviclife.org/key-funders-and-partners/
https://www.techandciviclife.org/our-work/election-officials/courses/#
Election officials can apply for help but naturally CTCL chooses who gets help. (hint - heavy dem places)

CTCL Partners

Google
Facebook
Women’s Donors Network
Knight Foundation
Rock the Vote - https://www.rockthevote.org/
Rockeleffer Brothers Fund
Center for Civic Design - below
The Voting Information Project - https://www.votinginfoproject.org/projects
Democracy Fund
Democracy Works - https://www.democracy.works/vip

US Alliance for Election Excellence - https://www.electionexcellence.org/partners

US AEE Partners

Center for Civic Design - https://civicdesign.org/
Center for Secure and Modern Elections - https://www.modernelections.org/
Hasso Plattner - Institure of Design at Stanford - https://dschool.stanford.edu/ - https://healthypolls.stanford.edu/
The Elections Group - https://www.electionsgroup.com/
Prototyping Systems Lab - https://prototypingsystems.org/
US Digital Response - https://www.usdigitalresponse.org/

All these groups will be helping heavy dem areas to modernize and GOTV.

IMHO - Modernization could be something like choosing the right Dominion machine and providing tech help with it. Designing ballots so that repubs end up on the fold line or so that Sharpie bleed through changes the outcome from R to D.

They have been cheating for over a century, and they still lose elections. regularly.

I read last night that two knuckleheads in Austin donated $2M to Beto the Breakfast Taco. How is that legal? Isn’t that buying the government and government favors?

Every new route they take to cheating can and will be neutralized.
They don't make the laws in red/purple states. We do.

We give them full license and leeway to attempt and fail in their cheating, and to discover ways around it and succeed, that is for certain.

Will it stop ballots being filled out and then shipped to PA from another state? Dominion machines will still be used and Philly is always corrupt. Hopefully we can win in 2024.

Dem ballot cheaters are like thieves and pick pockets. They will always attempt cheat. That doesn't mean they will get away with it or be successful.
Dems regularly lose elections, like they did in Virginia last year, despite cheating.

That’s really wild.

The Stanford site has this:

https://healthypolls.stanford.edu/resources/askanexpert03-m8nwx-zspg8-92efj-kpmrd-x94e5-zthp6

The woman they interview worked for Maricopa county for 11 years and is an “expert” in ballot “curing”.

We all know that’s one of the big ways they changed the score in 2020.

The Steal looks like a concerted Silicon Slum / U Cal effort.

Thank you for mentioning that.

In fact, it wouldn't be surprising if this law was made for election year appearance.

Insights welcome.

And speaking of election year, Trump's red tsunami of patriot supporters are reminded that they must vote twice this election year. Your first vote is to primary career RINO incumbents in federal and state governments. Your second vote is to replace outgoing Democrats and RINOs with Trump-endorsed patriot candidates.

Again, insights welcome.

Right. The reptile and his cohorts will find a workaround.
