The executive director of Honest Elections Project said the Left doesn’t “want the transparency” that comes with good elections systems.

“The U.S. Alliance for Election Excellence is the new version of Zuck Bucks; we call it Zuck Bucks 2.0,” Jason Snead said in reference to the $350 million granted through the Chan-Zuckerberg Initiative in the 2020 election. “It’s all the original actors that were behind the original version of Zuck Bucks in 2020, they’ve just morphed into this new coalition.”

Snead’s remarks came on a recent episode of "The Jenny Beth Show" podcast. He told host Jenny Beth Martin that the lack of election reform since the 2020 ballots is “a partisan effort with the veneer of nonpartisan, nonprofit on top of it. We want to make it easy to vote and hard to cheat; the Left wants to make it ‘effortless’ to vote. They go after reasonable rules that secure the process… they are trying to get rid of all those [voter] protections for various reasons because they ultimately want voting to be effortless.”

Snead is the executive director of Honest Elections Project, a nonpartisan group working with public engagement and litigation to support and defend fair and honest election systems. Prior to that, he spent over a decade working for the Heritage Foundation, a conservative research and think tank firm, as a senior policy analyst. While with the Foundation, he helped create their Fraud Database, which is a tool that aggregates instances of voter fraud across the country. Snead is a graduate of Bowling Green State University and George Mason University.

Jenny Beth Martin is the Honorary Chairman of Tea Party Patriots Action, which is headquartered in Cherokee County, Georgia. She was named one of 2010’s “Most Influential Leaders” by Time Magazine. She attended Reinhardt University in Wales, Georgia, as well as the University of Georgia.
