Georgia State Legislature Considers Bill to Ban Zuckerberg-Funded Private Election Administration Donations
Breitbart ^ | February 11 2021 | MICHAEL PATRICK LEAHY

Posted on 02/13/2021 2:42:35 PM PST by knighthawk

State Rep. Joseph Gullett introduced a bill to the Georgia House of Representatives that would ban private funding for the administration of federal, state, and local elections.

As Breitbart News reported, this controversial practice pioneered by Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan through $419 million in donations to nonprofits Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL) and the Center for Election Innovation and Research (CEIR) played a key role in determining the outcome of the 2020 presidential election, particularly in five key battleground states where President Biden narrowly defeated former President Trump: Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.

During Georgia’s 2020 election, the CTCL donated more than $24 million to four counties–Fulton, Gwinnett, Cobb, and DeKalb–where Biden outperformed Hillary Clinton by more than 200,000 votes, and the CEIR donated an estimated $3 million to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s office “for the purpose of educating voters about election rules and process.”

Who cares, you’ve already completely abdicated your role in elections. Go away

Interesting. All the stuff the Dems used to cheat are now being looked at and “outlawed” for the elections of Rathensberger and other Republicans who denied that there was any cheating. The Gov, Deputy Gov and SOS are really slimy pos’s

So Brad Raffensberger’s office got $3 million. That’s a bribe. How much did they pay Brad personally and through Swiss bank accounts? Probably a lot more than that.

Don't just “consider it”.
Just DO IT.
Every red state should ban the ballot stealing, dark money Zuckerberg outfits that have been sabotaging elections for the benefit of the Dems in red states.

Better yet, let him fund it but make him spend half the money on Conservative candidates.

Ask that question of John Rob. He can do something about it. FReepers reading this thread cannot.

Obviously this should be banned. But of course this is a case of shutting the barn door after all the horses have bolted.

But go ahead and do it and go ahead and finally get serious about stopping the cheating. It will make it that much easier to take it even further in 2 years after Kemp and Ratburger have been thrown out on their asses.
