Political text messages are out of control

I’m old enough to remember P Diddy warning us that if we didn’t vote we would die.

quote:

I wonder if the groups sending them realize the constant deluge of interruptions causes people to become annoyed, associate their candidate with the annoyance, and therefore be less likely to vote.

I think I'm going to get a new phone number.

I'll definitely vote early next time.

I haven't received one in years.

Probably because I ignored them if I liked the candidate and insulted them if I didn't.

How do these campaigns end up with people's numbers?

I've been getting spam political texts ever since I had to fill out a form to vote in the republican primary back in the spring/summer.

In Alabama I don't get any because the Republicans don't need it and the dems try to maximize what they have left so they can steal some.

After midterms...register again but do not post your phone number.

Can’t wait till this shite show is over.

Hopefully us Texans will send Talafreako back to the hole climbed out of.

I did my part

Another reason to hate AI

I get one or two texts a day and delete them. The more amazing thing is what the libs send to my actual mail box about Mike Johnson. Today's big glossy plastic page said that Mike Johnson has killed millions of children and made thousands of people homeless by ending welfare programs for the poor and disadvantaged. They don't recomment who I should vote for instead.
