Two North Carolina counties left a Zuckerbucks nonprofit — where private money is injected into public election administration — as the 2024 election cycle began, citing time commitment as the reason for leaving.

Brunswick and Forsyth counties in North Carolina have left the U.S. Alliance for Election Excellence, a project of the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), after joining it last year.

The alliance is awarding funds to counties and municipalities under the Centers for Election Excellence program. The alliance will provide $80 million over five years "to envision, support, and celebrate excellence in U.S. election administration," according to CTCL.

However, both Brunswick and Forsyth counties chose to not take money from the alliance when they became members in 2023.

This is good to see. We need more counties to refuse to take the election fraud funds. The counties that take the money are basically agreeing to allow the Democrats control their elections.

I thought the zuckerboxes were no longer legal?

Perhaps ballots should be posted online in near real-time.

Each voting machine would buffer ballots (to effectively preserve ballot secrecy).

When a voting machine buffer holds 60 or more ballot pages, the first 30 would be sent to election headquarters (in random order to preserve ballot secrecy).

Election headquarters would then tabulate and post them online.

There might be an online image for each ballot scan:

That may be illegal since it might cause someone not to vote.

Good: The proposed voting system should be compatible with modern e-pollbooks.

Better: The proposed voting system should be compatible with the county’s existing E-ZCheck Poll Pads.

Best: Bidders should describe how their proposed voting system is compatible with the county’s existing E-ZCheck Poll Pads without loss of any system features.
