please post examples of the dems doing this, I'd like to see what kind of rhetoric they're deploying.
Have seen NOTHING like this from the left in my corner of the country.
Don't wanna doxx myself because the mailers are all region specific, but I can assure you they are coming from dems too. I'm a dem voter and I got one and googled it. I even looked at the org that's behind it and the CEO was chief of staff for a dem and the employees donated to left wing candidates and the org comes up as highly rated on charity navigator. I called them to say that this seems like a right wing scare tactic so I was surprised to see it used on a left of center orgs mailers. Obviously there is nothing the rep could do, but hopefully if enough people call in they will change this. I'm still concerned that this left wing org is somehow secretly right wing because the mailer rubbed me the wrong way so much.
I got two from a local Dem organization. I got them right after I voted and the rhetoric seems to be along the lines of "don't forget to turn in your ballot!" Nothing specific on the first. The second one was more specific and showed a table of the last four elections and whether or not a vote was cast. I'll try to remember to post a pic later.
I wonder if it's proximity to a swing state.... safely blue state here, I could vote red 20 times and it wouldn't even register. still going to vote blue.
thank you for the links above!
I didn't vote for my local da because she ran unopposed (and she excused a cop for wrongdoing when he shot a kid in the back)
I’ve mostly seen YouTube ads so not sure how to share those here. I happened to get another postcard today though, with the exact same wording is the one I linked to elsewhere in this thread:
If you look at votingmatters.org it says:
