[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I volunteered to write these postcards during the presidential election. It felt like I could do something, when I otherwise felt hopeless. Throw it away if it bothers you, move on.[/quote]

So the thing is, getting these cards from out of state feels intrusive.  I totally get that the people sending them feel like they’ve “done something”, but I really do doubt if they’ve done what you hope they will do.    I remember back in 2016 when dh was at a grad program in MA.  He had classmates who were heavily-accented non-citizens canvassing NH for Hilary.  I get that they felt like they were doing something, but I really think their efforts were misguided.  Sometimes it matters what you do, not just that you’ve done “something”.  [/quote]

+1 I went to boarding school in NH and I thought it was so weird that the foreign students were campaigning so intensely. The leader of the Democrat club was Canadian FFS and the year before it was an Israeli student. [/quote]
