Just because Mark Zuckerberg announced that he would not fund election administration again does not mean the group he and his wife gave the bulk of their $419 million in donations to won't.
Epps-Johnson described the new group, the Alliance for Election Excellence, as a non-partisan collaboration of election officials, technologists, and other experts working across all 50 states to improve election processes.
According to Jason Snead, Executive Director of Honest Elections, the Alliance will disseminate best practices, operating procedures, templates, and other resources to election offices to work around the new laws.
The goal is to build a network of election officials and influence the way elections are administered through operational guidance.
Another group is planning to fill the local election offices with progressive candidates.
Now the organization's goal is to run 5,000 candidates for local offices in charge of election administration.
The Alliance ended its call for local election offices to join on May 16.
