BREAKING: Adrian Fontes Brings Biden’s Government GOTV Machine to Arizona Universities
Biden’s weaponizing the federal government to win reelection. Should taxpayers foot the bill to register Democrats?
Joe Biden’s cynical plan to juice Democratic turnout on college campuses just landed in Arizona, and it’s Adrian Fontes’ fault.
Yesterday, the hyperpartisan Democrat Secretary of State announced Arizona would launch a “Campus Voting Challenge” to “ensure every eligible member of the campus community is ready to vote in 2024”—covering some 85 colleges and universities with perhaps 600,000 enrolled students.
Absolutely no one is shocked to learn that these voters will overwhelmingly vote Democrat if they vote at all.
This campaign didn’t happen organically. It’s the product of the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge, itself a front for the “progressive” activist hub Civic Nation, which this writer initially exposed in the lead-up to the 2022 midterm elections.
The ALL IN website features praise from Democratic politicians like Michigan Sec. of State Jocelyn Benson, an all-mail election devotee, New Jersey Sec. of State Tahesha Way, and ex-Pennsylvania Sec. of State Leigh Chapman—who now heads “democracy-building work” for George Soros’ Open Society Foundations.
Missing: Any conservatives.
Far from being “nonpartisan,” as Fontes and ALL IN claim, Civic Nation’s board is chaired by ex-Obama advisor Valerie Jarrett—most infamous for architecting the 2015 Iran Nuclear Agreement—and numerous other Obama administration alumni. Notables include Tina Tchen, ex-chief of staff for Michelle Obama; Cecilia Munoz, an open borders activist for the Latino nationalist group UnidosUS and former Domestic Policy Council director; and former White House counsel Pete Rouse.
The group’s CEO, Kyle Lierman, was a 2008 Obama presidential campaign field director who also led When We All Vote, a get-out-the-vote group run by Civic Nation with funding from the Arabella Advisors’ “dark money” machine.
Other donors include Pierre Omidyar’s Democracy Fund, the Kresge Foundation, Carnegie Corporation, Environmental Defense Fund, and Chicago-based Joyce Foundation—whose board once included then. Illinois Sen. Barack Obama.

Growing Desperate
Civic Nation brags that it’s reached over 10 million students at 1,000 higher ed institutions across all 50 states, a feat made possible by funding from the Biden administration.
The Daily Signal revealed last week that Civic Nation contacted education officials in Madison, Wisconsin—a Democratic bastion—about using federal Work-Study program funds to pay students to register their peers to vote. Those funds are supposed to be used for part-time jobs on campus; now the Left is turning them into a get-out-the-vote machine.
It’s no mystery why—pundits widely consider the youth vote key to halting the Republican “red wave” in 2022, something nonprofits like Civic Nation aren’t supposed to do, while Biden’s polling numbers with Millennials and “Zoomers” are in freefall.
And now Donald Trump leads Biden by 4–7 points in Arizona, as of writing. Don’t count on Democrats to play fair.
