These texts have taught me to never make a political donation, ever.

My tactic has been to tell them if they keep texting me I will vote for their opponent, simply out of spite. There are a bunch of lists, so I’ve had to do this a few times over the last couple elections, but things over the last several months have been pretty peaceful when it comes to political texts.




Yup I will never ever make a political donation for this reason.

Also they have merged my brother and my info in whatever crappy database so they all call me by my brother’s name.

So my view is “if your political operation is such a shit show that you can’t even get good data, why should I assume you know anything?”


I’ve had them call me the complete wrong name before as well. Not even a merged family member, they basically texted the wrong number.
