"Republicans Block Outside Funding for Elections"

Republicans, led by Trump, have successfully pushed for bans on private election funding in Wisconsin, following a campaign against Mark Zuckerberg's donations to nonpartisan nonprofits in 2020. This has led to a nationwide movement to restrict private election grants, leaving election offices struggling for funding. The conspiracy theory that the funds benefited Democrats has been debunked, but experts warn that misinformation around private grants is likely to grow heading into the 2024 election, potentially undermining election integrity for political gain.
