    I’ve learned the hard way to never give my email or address to charities or political campaigns. If they require that info to donate, they don’t get a donation 🤷

      I didn’t give them my email address! I don’t even know how they got it!

      I’m not even a registered Democrat.

      Also, I already voted for them. I wish there was some way to let them know that.

        They know. If you are still receiving get out the vote communications, then it just hasn’t been passed down yet. Just unsubscribe.

      I have to give my email in order to get a mail-in ballot. And of course, they put that email on all the political lists so they can bombard you. I typically just keep blocking them and they have reduced over time. Still frustrated tho…

      Same.

      Years ago, like an idiot, I gave my primary email address to ActBlue. I get SO MUCH political spam now, it’s insane. Like, I now have a blanket policy to just immediately unsubscribe, delete, and blacklist entire domains now.
