EXCLUSIVE: Report warns of dark money groups influencing local election offices
The report details efforts by the U.S. Alliance for Election Excellence to target local officials by offering grants in exchange for in-kind contributions, such as internal information on how individual offices operate and carry out elections. By obtaining this information, the organization can push for an “improvement plan” that changes how election workers carry out their duties.
The “Zuckerbucks” prompted widespread scrutiny from GOP lawmakers, who claimed the funds were being used to benefit Democrats and ensure President Joe Biden’s victory. As a result, 24 Republican-led states banned the practice of allowing private donations to election offices. However, North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper vetoed such a measure in 2021.
However, internal communications show that some of the resources made available to Alliance for Election Excellence members include “center-specific coaching and consulting from select Alliance partners” on legal and political issues, according to the membership agreement. Once members are accepted, they are then required to work with the Alliance for Election Excellence to develop an “improvement plan” for their offices, which entails turning over internal information about how their workers function. From there, the Alliance for Election Excellence can begin to offer recommendations for how to streamline election administration.
