Through his nonprofit, Mark Zuckerberg sent millions of dollars to election officials around the country. We're told the idea for that is to help finance the operations of the elections and to encourage participation in voting.
Sounds good, right? But is there more to it than that?

Check out the interview to find out why PILF want to see all 50 states ban private funding of election operations.
