I guess the LA Times is too?  The politicians supporting it are too hooked on the sugar rush, but this will backfire on them.  Give it time.

"Political spam has become too cheap and easy to send out. Billions of political messages are dispatched by the candidates’ campaigns each year in email, text and robocalls. For us recipients, it’s none too easy to opt out. While commercial solicitations by email and text are subject to certain basic rules — they must have clear opt-out mechanisms and must identify who is sending the message, for instance — political email is less tightly regulated.

“The politicians who write the rules have exempted themselves from a lot of the rules that could apply,” Ellen Weintraub, a member of the Federal Election Commission, told the Washington Post. That was in October when Google was launching a pilot program to allow campaign emails to bypass the spam filters that protect Gmail users from junk mail."
