Tax-deductible 'charities' served as pipelines to Democrat voter registration: report
Just the News ^ | August 27, 2026 | Ashe Short

Leftist nonprofits are using pass-through organizations to boost voter registration for demographics most likely to vote for Democrats, a new report alleges.

The report, titled “The ‘Charities’ influencing elections: 2024 and beyond,” written by the Capital Research Center (CRC), found that multiple left-leaning 501(c)(3)s, which are prohibited from engaging in any political campaign for or against a candidate and whose donations are tax deductible, acted as conduits for 501(c)(4)s, which are permitted to engage in direct partisan politics.

Those tax-exempt organizations spent $638 million during the 2024 election cycle, according to the report, to register voters most likely to vote for Democrats.

Three 501(c)(3)s – America Votes Education Fund (AVEF), Guarantee Our Votes Project (GOVP) and Democracy Matters Foundation – effectively routed their entire annual expenditure to affiliated 501(c)(4) organizations while conducting almost no independent program activity.

America Votes Education Fund: AVEF reported on its most recent IRS Form 990s that it gave $20,748,002 in grants to its 501(c)(4) affiliate America Votes while spending just $532 in office expenses and $274 in fundraising expenses in 2024, and paid no employees.

... to register voters most likely to vote for Democrats.

In other words, they were looking for the mentally ill, the corrupt, the stupid, and the ignorant.

Democrats must own a lot of tax-exempt organizations count the votes until they come out right in action.

It’s a one big shell game or Three Card Monte.

Give to a 501(c)(3) and THEY, in turn, give to a 501(c)(4)........

The only tax exempt organizations worse than the Church of Scientology (but barely).

Big blue cities are a target-rich environment.

In Massachusetts when one visits the DMV...for any reason...they’re automatically registered to vote. And given that Massachusetts doesn’t require proof of citizenship when getting a “basic” license (not Real ID) we know that thousands and thousands of wetbacks are registered to vote here. And also no ID is required in this state at the polling place.

What I have been saying even before Trump came into the picture is that voter registration groups should be illegal. Public service announcements only in terms of getting people to register to vote. The groups are mostly about fraud. And at the very least they have an agenda that unbalances the system.

Fauci used this in approving $$ for GainofFunction designs. He transfered the $$ to a 3rd party — which sent the $$ to the CCP.
This is a violation, but nothing will happen since no state AG has the balls.
