      Wisconsin voters have approved a constitutional amendment banning private money for elections. The constitutional amendment passed on Tuesday after it was proposed by Republicans who were fed up with the money funneled into elections by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, dubbed Zuckerbucks.

      "Wisconsin has spoken and the message is clear: elections belong to voters, not out-of-state billionaires," GOP Chairman Brian Schimming said.

      A second question offered by Republicans amended the state constitution to say that elections could only be administered by actual election officials. Though this was already state law, enshrining it in the constitution firms up the practice against legislative change.

        Sadly, there is no way to prevent election interference from "big tech".

        I'm sure we all saw the leaked video of Google's CEO saying that they were going to change their algorithm to prevent Trump from winning again.

        Biden didn't get fact checked, but Trump constantly got fact checked, then used that to show that Trump was a liar and Biden was "Honest Joe".
