In November 2020, Pima County Supervisors Ally Miller and Steve Christy voted against a canvass of the 2020 General Election results citing concerns that the their certification of results would be part of a larger pool of certifications coming out of the state of Arizona and across the country of an election in which “Big Tech” spent “big money on old time ballot box stuffing at historic levels.”
This week, their concerns were confirmed to some extent as IRS filings shows a top player in Big Tech, Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg, spent at least $5.1 million to influence 2020 election offices in just Arizona alone.
In December 2020, the Amistad Project of the Thomas More Society, a national constitutional litigation organization, revealed at a national press conference a report exposing Zuckerberg’s involvement in a dark money apparatus of 10 nonprofits funded by 5 foundations whose involvement fundamentally undermined the electoral system.

“The 2020 election witnessed a coordinated and concerted effort funded by Mr. Zuckerberg and other high-tech interests to use government to improperly influence the election for Joe Biden,” said Phil Kline, Director of the Amistad Project
Zuckerberg’s $500 million intervention included a $350 million donation to the Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL), which used the money to illegally inflate turnout in key Democratic swing states as part of this effort. This network injected hundreds of millions of dollars into the election, violating state and federal election laws in the process and ensuring an unequal distribution of funding that favored Democratic precincts, depriving voters of both due process and equal protection.

“This network pumped hundreds of millions of dollars into local election systems using the COVID crisis as a pretense. Our report proves that in reality it was nothing more than a naked attempt to purchase an election. ‘Zuckerbucks’ and local election officials invited a billionaire into the consolidated ballot counting centers while kicking out the American people,” Kline said.
Kline said the report painted “a clear picture of a cabal of billionaires and activists using their wealth to subvert, control, and fundamentally alter the electoral system itself.
Kline urged election officials and lawmakers in each state to take action “to prevent such privatized elections in the future. The American public deserves transparent and fair elections, not lawless elections directed by powerful private interests.”
In addition to Zuckerberg, the main foundations funding the effort to subvert the electoral system were The Democracy Fund, New Venture Fund, Skoll Foundation, and Knight Foundation, according to the report. Key nonprofits involved in distributing the money include CTCL, the Center for Electronic Innovation Research, the Center for Civic Design, the National Vote at Home Institute, the Center for Secure and Modern Elections, and Rock the Vote.
