Seriously.

I am also a Boomer. I am voting on the issues listed. Unlike PP, however, I live in Virginia.
Youngkin voter.
Same. With Y on all of the above, plus I’d just like these smug race baiting defund-the-police wackos to have a slice of humble pie.
I haven’t received postcards but about twenty texts in the last two weeks from out of state people telling me why I should vote for McAullife. I gave responded to them “Back to you on Nov 3.” When Youngkin winds I will be back to them with a carefully crafted message brimming with gloat and opprobrium.
There's no return address on any. These come from private individuals. You can mail it to the abyss, my friend. No one cares.
Check your reading. Pp got texts, not postcards.

You know all of the tv/mail/internet ads are financed by people outside of your community, right? Are you as mad at them too?
Are you kidding? Those are insanely annoying!!! I actually grew up in Iowa, hating political ads is my birthright.
Great - then a handwritten postcard from an individual from another state would logically be less upsetting that the fact that big corporations pump money into Super PACs to send you ads/mail/flyers, etc on how to vote in your community, no?
At least I understand the corporation’s profit motive. I find the faux altruism of postcard writers more grating. It’s not your business, so keep out.

As a person who doesn’t like either candidate, this goes in the “Con” column for McAuliffe. Are there any studies showing these things help? Because honestly it really just pisses me off to have strangers from across the country sending me these things. My vote is based on the best interest of my state, not people outside the state.
Apparently your vote is also based on whether a concerted citizen sent you a piece of mail. That’s a level of petty I just can’t even imagine.
