Notorious ‘Zuckbucks’ Group Attempts Election Interference Again, Now with Federal Funds
CTCL Aims to Secure Massive Federal Grant for Election Offices
On Wednesday, the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL) announced its efforts to assist election offices in applying for a federal grant program administered by FEMA. This program has the potential to provide over $700 million to election offices during the 2024 election. CTCL, known for its involvement in funding Democrat turnout in the 2020 election, plans to host a webinar to guide officials through the application process.
The Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) grant program, according to FEMA, aims to support hazard mitigation projects and reduce risks from disasters. CTCL sees this as a unique opportunity for election offices to secure funding. Despite previous BRIC grants being focused on natural disaster relief, CTCL argues that elections should be classified as a “critical service” deserving of competitive FEMA grant funding.
The webinar will cover the application process and provide inspiration for how the grant funds can be used. CTCL’s involvement in the 2020 election raised concerns and led to laws prohibiting private funding of election administration in 27 states. However, by tapping into federal funding, CTCL and its partners could potentially continue their election manipulation efforts in favor of Democrats.
CTCL’s Controversial Role in the 2020 Election
In 2020, CTCL gained attention for its Covid-19 Response Grant Program, which aimed to gain control of election offices in critical areas for Democrats. The program provided large grants with strings attached, allowing partisan activists to implement preferred administrative practices and voting methods. These efforts included targeted voter turnout campaigns and mail-in ballot-chasing in urban areas with potential Democrat voters.
CTCL’s interference in the election led to laws prohibiting private funding of elections in many states. However, by accessing federal funding through the BRIC grant program, CTCL and its partners could potentially continue their manipulation of the election system.
The Role of Election Offices and the Need for Scrutiny
Election offices should focus on maintaining polls and accurately counting votes, not on increasing voter turnout. CTCL’s involvement in data aggregation, statistical analysis, and behavioral science solutions raises concerns about their intentions. Voter turnout operations often have partisan effects, and election officials who aim to increase turnout in favor of Democrats can significantly impact election outcomes.
Lawmakers should closely scrutinize CTCL’s relationship with the BRIC grant program and public election offices to prevent interference in the 2024 election. It is crucial to eliminate the influence of well-funded groups seeking to manipulate elections.
How can election officials effectively apply for the BRIC grant program to improve election infrastructure?
Ovide election offices with the necessary information and resources to effectively apply for the BRIC grant program. CTCL believes that by assisting election offices in securing this funding, it can help improve election infrastructure, expand voter access, and enhance election security in future elections.
CTCL’s decision to focus on securing federal grant funding for election offices comes as no surprise, given its previous involvement in funding Democrat turnout in the 2020 election. With its proven track record of effectively utilizing resources to increase voter engagement, CTCL is well-positioned to guide election officials through the application process and ensure that they have the best chance of securing the necessary funding for their respective offices.
By advocating for elections to be recognized as critical services deserving of competitive FEMA grant funding, CTCL highlights the crucial role that election offices play in our democratic process. The ability to effectively administer elections, ensure voter access, and maintain election security is essential to the functioning of our democracy. By securing funding through the BRIC grant program, election offices can enhance their capabilities and address any vulnerabilities in their infrastructure, ultimately leading to more secure and efficient elections.
The webinar hosted by CTCL will give election officials the opportunity to learn about the application process in detail and gain valuable insights from experts in the field. The webinar will cover important aspects such as eligibility criteria, required documentation, and best practices for submitting a successful application. By providing election offices with this knowledge, CTCL aims to empower officials and increase their chances of securing the much-needed funding.
The $700 million available through the BRIC grant program has the potential to significantly impact election offices across the country. This funding can be utilized to update and modernize election infrastructure, implement advanced cybersecurity measures, and expand voter outreach programs. By investing in these areas, election offices can address existing challenges and ensure that future elections are conducted with the highest level of integrity and accessibility.
While some may question CTCL’s involvement in the application process for federal grant funding, it is important to acknowledge the positive outcomes that can result from this initiative. By leveraging its expertise and resources, CTCL has the ability to assist election offices in securing the funding necessary to improve election systems across the country. The webinar hosted by CTCL will serve as a valuable tool for election officials, equipping them with the knowledge and guidance required to navigate the application process successfully.
As the 2024 election approaches, it is crucial that election offices have the necessary resources to ensure secure and efficient elections. By advocating for election offices to secure federal grant funding through the BRIC program, CTCL is playing a vital role in supporting the integrity of our democratic process. The webinar hosted by CTCL is a testament to its commitment to improving election infrastructure and expanding voter access. With the potential to provide over $700 million in funding, the BRIC grant program offers a unique opportunity for election offices to enhance their capabilities and make significant strides towards a safer and more accessible electoral system.
