CapitalResearch.org: When billionaire Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg partnered with a Chicago-based 501(c)(3) public charity to effectively privatize the election in many states, the Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL) was basically formed. It’s job was to funnel an unprecedented $350 million from Zuckerberg to local elections officials for COVID-19 “relief.” CTCL quickly grew from almost nothing to a titan with the means to heavily influence election outcomes in favor of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden in key battleground states through “Zuck Bucks”.
Take for example, Arizona. By any normal metric, Arizona should have been an easy win for Trump, even a blowout. But enter CTCL, which made grants to nine Arizona counties just prior to the 2020 election, five of which have been confirmed by CRC to total just over $5 million and funded 4 of the 5 counties Biden supposedly won. Only one county in the state flipped in 2020: Maricopa County, which narrowly broke for Biden by 50.3 percent to 48.1 percent and was funded by CTCL to the tune of close to $3 million. Maricopa County gave Biden 1,040,774 votes (62 percent of his statewide total), miraculously doubling Clinton’s 2016 figures. In 2016, Trump won Maricopa 49.1 percent to 45.7 percent with 590,465 votes. Yet he lost the county in 2020, despite winning an additional 405,000 votes, bringing his total to 995,665 votes (59.9 percent of his statewide total). Hmmm…
That result would be impressive for a political action committee (PAC) designed to do just that, but CTCL isn’t a PAC. It’s a 501(c)(3) public charity barred from intervening in elections. Mark Zuckerberg was, in effect, able to tilt the outcome of the vote in Arizona to favor Biden using the wrong vehicle, while receiving a tax break in the process.

Likewise with Nevada, where Trump actually improved his total vote share in the state by only 2 percent, but had the largest increase in votes in Nevada history! In a normal election, Trump’s incredible surge over his 2016 turnout would have flipped Nevada into his column. Instead, Biden’s votes show he somehow outperformed every presidential candidate in history. Statistically, this should boggle your mind.
Now enter CTCL and $2.7 million in grants split between just two Nevada counties, Clark ($2,394,036) and Washoe ($277,479)—the only two counties Biden won in the Silver State. Here are some stats (download CTCL grant data for Arizona and Nevada here):
- CTCL spent $4.59 per Biden voter in Clark County. That’s $1.06 for every man, woman, and child living there. No less than 74 percent of Biden’s votes came from Clark County: 521,852 votes, a whopping 77 percent increase (120,784 votes) over Hillary Clinton’s 2016 figures.
- CTCL spent $2.17 per Biden voter in Washoe County. That’s $0.59 for every person living in the county.
Washoe County gave Biden 128,128 votes, a 76 percent increase (31,096 votes) over Clinton’s 2016 figures.
How much did CTCL’s $2.3 million grant to Clark County help turn out Biden voters? Clark County contains 71 percent of Nevada’s 1.8 million registered voters. In 2020, Nevada conducted an all-mail election, sending absentee ballots—which usually must be requested by voters—to every registered voter in the state. But the use of “secure dropboxes” might have been the worst use of potential voter fraud.
Dropboxes sidestep basic voting integrity requirements, allowing anyone—without any identification—to drop any number of ballots into a private collection bin with no official oversight and no accountability after the fact. If a fraudster wanted to flood the ballot box with phony ballots, CTCL’s Zuck bucks enabled him to bypass USPS mailboxes. There’s no reason to believe CTCL didn’t require the same dropboxes be scattered around Reno, Las Vegas, and everywhere else its funds were sent.
As a result, we’ll never know how many fake ballots entered into the election bloodstream this way. The villain is certainly the Center for Tech and Civic Life in this scenario. They all but managed the 2020 election in battleground states where it had no business meddling given its nonprofit status. For the first time in history, Big Philanthropy privatized an American election—and the media couldn’t be bothered to notice. But we have …
