On Tuesday, voters in the state of Wisconsin made it clear they did not want Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg interfering in their elections by approving an amendment that banned the use of private funding for elections in the extremely important swing state. The American people are clearly and decisively coming out time and time again to reject extreme left-wing political policy and strategy. The regular Americans who make up this great nation are sick and tired of having their freedom, their values, and their economy destroyed by a bunch of rich, out-of-touch liberals who are arrogant enough to believe they know what is best for everyone. And we’ve most certainly had enough of the interference by progressives into our election system.
Check out more details from Breitbart News:
The amendment directs that “donations and grants may not be applied for, accepted, expended, or used in…connection with the conduct of any primary, election, or referendum,” according to the question phrasing that the Wisconsin State Legislature listed. Associated Press election results showed the ballot question passed by a 54.4 percent to 45.6 percent vote.
Wisconsinites also voted in favor of a second part to the amendment on ballot question two, mandating “that only election officials designated by law may perform tasks in the conduct of primaries, elections, and referendums.” That question passed with 58.6 percent of support.
The votes come four years after the Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL), gave more than $10 million in grants in Wisconsin in the 2020 election, as Capital Research Center reported.
“Mark Zuckerberg and wife Priscilla Chan notoriously poured hundreds of millions of ‘Zuckerbucks’ into” the CTCL “for the purpose of getting out the vote in Democrat-leaning areas in the 2020 election,” Breitbart News previously reported.
Back in 2020, Biden managed to pull out a victory in Wisconsin by a measly 20,682 votes. The following year, the state was given an opportunity to prohibit private funding of elections, but their Democratic governor, Tony Evers, slapped a veto on the legislation.
At a rally on Wednesday evening in the city of Green Bay, former President Donald Trump urged his supporters to head to the polls, while they were still open, in order to “ban Zuckerbucks” by voting for the ballot questions. The GOP was super happy with the results.
Goodbye, Zuckerbucks!
Wisconsin has voted YES on Questions 1 & 2.

“Victory! Wisconsin has spoken and the message is clear: elections belong to voters, not out-of-state billionaires,” stated Wisconsin Republican Party Chairman Brian Schimming.
“Thanks to the efforts by the Republican Party of Wisconsin and grassroots organizing, Wisconsinites have turned the page on Zuckerbucks and secured our elections from dark money donors,” he continued.
The Wisconsin GOP celebrated with a post on X, reading, “Goodbye, Zuckerbucks!”
Turning Point USA Founder Charlie Kirk cheered the new amendment in a post on X.
Wisconsin “voters, by a large margin, just rejected the oligcarch [sic] takeover of our elections.”
BOOM!
Wisconsin just voted YES on Question 1 effectively banning Zuckerbucks in the state of Wisconsin!

Election integrity is one of the top 10 most critical issues facing this country, especially in light of the previous presidential race that saw just how influential Zuckerbucks were in helping to turn the tide against Trump, landing Biden in the White House. We’ve almost witnessed the utter destruction of our economy as a result and the erosion of critical liberties such as the First Amendment. We can’t take another four years of Biden in the Oval Office.
