As reported by WBAY:

“The 13-person panel brought together multiple nonpartisan organizations led by citizens from across the political spectrum. Speakers focused on combating misinformation, easing fears over voting practices, and engaging young voters to fight apathy.”

“People that I’ve respected, that are well educated, that are leaders in their community and leaders in their businesses, that would call me up and talk about how the election was stolen,” Jim Steineke, the Wisconsin Chair for RightCount, explained during the panel.

Paul Van Auken, WisACT’s coordinator, spoke about the importance of getting involved in the process.

“The more you’re involved, the more you have conversations with people, especially if they’re maybe on a different side of the political spectrum,” Van Auken said during the panel. “You’ll start to feel more confident that, okay, we’re actually all right here.”
