The following is a short post to tickle the interest of those so inclined to look beyond local potential problems with election integrity. It comes from the indomitable Deborah Baber, a long-term advocate for election integrity in California, and credits Lori Mills, the eminent video podcaster of “Uncovered California”, with some of the detective work. I quote Deb in her entirety:

Lori Mills (Uncovered California) has talked about Arabella Investors for years. The root and rot is deep, massive, and UK connected among others.

FYI, in case you haven't seen this, which passed by my transom.

"United Kingdom Apax Partners intimately tied to American's elections! Its deep -

Apax acquired NGP VAN — the Democrat Party’s comprehensive voter database — in 2021, placed it under their subsidiary named Bonterra.

“A British private equity firm being one of the most powerful forces in American politics — something seems wrong with that,”

Controls and is behind the Hands Off protests, the anti-Tesla protests. Mobilize America, Action Kit are just a few of the tens of thousands of organizations Apax is behind.

“Bonterra owns more than 50 percent of the left’s get-out-the-vote, canvassing, text messaging, and calling infrastructure,”

Apax has pushed ESG and DEI for a long time. They have donated directly to the DNC Services Corp., more than $45,000 to ActBlue, and $25,000 to “Democratic municipal officials.” But that is just the tip of the iceberg (as usual).

And of course, Apax is directly tied into Arabella Advisors. Arabella has five divisions: the New Venture Fund, the Hopewell Fund, the Windward Fund, the Sixteen Thirty Fund, and the North Fund.

In 2020, the New Venture Fund gave $24.8 million to the Center for Tech and Civic Life, which funneled $350 million in “Zuckbucks” from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg to boost Democrat turnout in the presidential election.

And from 2020 to 2021, the New Venture Fund also gave $675,000 to the other “Zuckbucks” group, the leftist Center for Election Innovation and Research. CEIR - founded by David Becker, sister company of ERIC (Electronic Registration Information Center).

And Arabella's largest funders: the Bill Gates Foundation, The Susan Buffett Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Wyss Foundation.

Sorting out this spaghetti of possible adverse influence may not be of interest to Congress or the Federal Elections Commission, but perhaps some of you—or others you forward this to—may be able to Sherlock Holmes the truth. “Eliminate the impossible, and whatever is left must be the truth”.
