Established Fact
Harvey Wasserman’s Grassroots Emergency Election Protection Coalition published the “Trifecta Action Guide,” publicly available at grassrootsep.org, which explicitly instructed readers to “apply to get on the election board,” “apply to be a poll worker,” and “learn how to become a ballot acceptance worker/observer” in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Florida, and Arizona. The guide openly advocates embedding partisan activists in election administration roles; “infiltrate” is the project’s characterization of what the guide openly promotes.
Established Fact: the guide was published, publicly accessible, and contains the instructions described. The guide’s instructions are consistent with subsequent reports of partisan-aligned individuals serving in Wisconsin election administration roles.

Harvey Wasserman, “How to Save 2020: The Grassroots Emergency Election Protection ‘Trifecta’ Action Guide” (Aug. 14, 2020), Grassroots Emergency Election Protection Coalition: https://grassrootsep.org/how-to-save-2020/. Wasserman’s guide explicitly instructed readers to “apply to get on the election board,” “apply to be a poll worker,” and “learn how to become a ballot acceptance worker/observer” in key swing states including Wisconsin.
The Trifecta Action Guide listed Wisconsin as one of the six primary swing states requiring “embedded” EP activists in election boards and as poll workers. The guide stated: “At least as many Election Protectionists must embed with state/county election boards, as soon as possible, for as long as necessary.” See https://grassrootsep.org/how-to-save-2020/
Accuracy note: The Trifecta Action Guide is a publicly available document confirming coordinated instruction to embed EP activists in election boards and tabulation processes. The guide advocates these actions as “election protection” measures; the characterization of this as “infiltration” is the project’s framing. The guide itself openly calls for these actions rather than concealing them.
