Democratic Senate Campaign Catches Conservative Infiltrator

The young volunteer seemed like any other when she stepped out of her white pickup and into a campaign field office for Russ Feingold’s Senate campaign in Wisconsin on Monday. She said she was a recent transplant from Minnesota, where she claimed she had done phone-banking for Democratic Gov. Mark Dayton and Sen. Al Franken. She later declared an interest in women’s health, the environment, and labor issues. On a nondisclosure agreement with the campaign, the blonde woman signed her name as “Allison Moss,” and pledged not to share the campaign’s proprietary data and confidential information private.

But when the Feingold campaign tried to vet its latest recruit—standard practice in the age of opposition research—they could find no record of an ‘Allison Moss.’ A Facebook search revealed an account created days before. Her phone number was registered with a New York area code. Her photo matched those of an activist, Allison Maass, caught last year trying to infiltrate the offices of the Hillary Clinton campaign in Iowa.


The Clinton campaign identified Maass, then giving her name as ‘Allison Holmes,’ and at least one other woman last August as having infiltrated among their volunteers and allegedly trying to entrap their supporters in Iowa. One scheme including attempting to pass potentially illegal cash donations onto the campaign.

So, she isn't interested in 'women's health'?
