>An initiative led by The Center for Tech and Civic Life – a nonprofit group that controversially used funds from Mark Zuckerberg to boost turnout for Democrats in the 2020 election – is purchasing facilities for local election offices to store voting machines and ballots. >The private financing of American electoral infrastructure comes from the Alliance for Election Excellence (AEE), which was launched with nearly $100 million in April 2022 under the leadership of Tiana Epps-Johnson and the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL). The CTCL reportedly overruled local election officials and increase turnout in almost exclusively Democratic districts through mail-in voting in the 2020 cycle.
