I live in GA. I got ten pieces of mail about voting just today.

[Ilsa]

I have more than two dozen sets of texts from various groups asking me to vote, or how I intend to vote.

I've started delaying tv viewing so I can fast forward through ads, which are frequently political.

I'm ready for this to be over.

[LisaL]

1. But did you vote?

NT

[Ilsa]

2. Of course! On 2nd day of early, in-person voting.

I even received a republican flyer this week with Pence explaining that mail-in voting is safe and he and Trump use it.

[Dream Girl]

4. She's still deciding.

[Ilsa]

13. I even received a republican flyer this week with Pence

explaining that mail-in voting is safe and he and Trump use it.

[joshcryer]

14. Haha, that's great.

[questionseverything]

3. While I understand how that could get irritating

I am thrilled there is that much energy invested

[Ilsa]

7. I have thanked them every time for their hard work.

Most contacts have been from Democratic organizations.

After a long General election period, we got an extra two months of campaigning.

[questionseverything]

12. Do you feel like democrats have the energy to win?

[Ilsa]

15. Yes, I do.

The intense Rs are fighting back with suppression efforts, but I think we can win.

[Ilsa]

18. Just saw a black female voter from Smyrna who said, paraphrased,

"a little cold rain won't hurt. My ancestors sacrificed much more to give me the right to be here and vote."

[questionseverything]

19. Now is our time

Bless her and every voter

[NightWatcher]

5. They beg us nationwide for money to do that to you.

[Ilsa]

9. Yes, I ready for all of you to get a break as well! nt

[handmade34]

6. I live in Vermont

and I get about 10 emails a day about helping the vote in Georgia... I am anxious for this to be over, for you and hopefully, with Democratic wins so we all can be glad it's over

[Ilsa]

8. It's looking good!

We have two great candidates.

[cilla4progress]

10. Why I tend not to do calling,

texting. I know what it's like to be overloaded with calls!

[lapfog_1]

11. only 2 dozen?

I get at least 30 texts and 100 emails a day about the georgia runoff...

The ones I hate say something like "we are packing up" or "it's over" or some other defeatist crap. I have contributed $500 so far through act blue.

[Ilsa]

16. $500? OMG! Yeah, I hate anything suggesting

they will throw in the towel if I don't ante-up. I will not concede to emotional blackmail.

You're a good egg for being so generous.

[diva77]

43. I think Dems need $$ to fight all the frivolous lawsuits and voter suppression tactics too

[Dream Girl]

20. God bless you!

[Hoyt]

17. The constant ads and texts are getting old. But if that's what

it takes, I can handle a few more days. Ossoff and Warnock’s ads are pretty good actually.

I’m really tired of the commie/socialist, tax and spend, defund police, deplete military, AOC doesn’t want to negotiate, Rev Wright BS from Perdue and Loffeler.

[Ilsa]

29. Oh, yeah, the "scare 'em with socialism" ads are pathetically 1980s.

Warnock has the best ads. I like the latest with him walking about ten dogs, pulling him to the polls.

[lindysalsagal]

21. This is why I only did a couple of days of phone banking in october.

The overkill is a problem.

[TrishaJ]

22. *sigh* I live in Georgia, and likewise.

The end of this can't come soon enough. With Ossoff and Warnock wins, of course!

[Cha]

23. I've gotten over 200 texts from the magats

for some guy named "Jerry" in Georgia.. just got 2 more today Asking "Why is he Waiting to Vote?". I think Jerry must no longer be with us or in hiding lol.. somehow they got my number that I've had for 10 years!

Evidently from the texts over these months including the primary he was a big donor & they realize they're hounding him but why didn't he vote Early?"

And, they're Always Lying about the Dems.. the latest was "the Dems are gearing up to take AWAY our GUNS."

[MagickMuffin]

25. Back to "taking our guns" tactic

It seems to never fail. And yet with every Democratic president no one has taken their guns unless they weren't suppose to possess them because they are felons and criminals and might use the guns in an illegal act.


DOPES!

[Cha]

26. I know.. they're stupid lying pols who

know that their audience will believe anything Lie they come up with.

[MagickMuffin]

35. Indeed

They just aren't prone to evolution at ALL!



Have a Happy & Prosperous New Year, Cha!

[Cha]

37. Have a Healthy Happy New Year,

yourself, MagickMuffin!



Good Bye 2020!

[Hekate]

40. Oh there you are, Cha! Happy new year and stay healthy...

(Joe’s got this)

[Cha]

41. HAPPY HEALTHY NEW YEAR 2021 TO

YOU, TOO, HEKATE!

That's Why it's so HAPPY.. 'cause Joe & Kamala Got This!!

[Ilsa]

30. I blasted my brother about "Joe Biden wants to

take away our guns." I reminded him that Obama and Biden had 8 years to do that, and they didn't.

[Cha]

33. Good on you, Ilsa.. Using Logic!

[Ms. Toad]

24. Sorry if you got one from me -

I'm on the handwritten postcard brigade. (Sent from Ohio on 12/23.)

[Ilsa]

28. LOL. Thank you for it, though!

Seriously, I appreciate the national effort put into the senate races. Aren't you glad the campaign is almost finished? No more emails asking for money, phone banking, texting, etc.

I got one text asking if they could count on my support for Kelly Looffa and Perdue. "Hell, NO." and "STOP" were my response.

Yep, our household received a few postcards.

[Ms. Toad]

34. I volunteered to write 250 postcards

And then developed a sarcoma, in my right arm, so I had to scramble to finish them all before surgery, since i am banned from writing for three weeks. I finished at 4:00 AM before my first surgery. I mailed them the day of my second surgery.

[aikoaiko]

27. I'm in GA too and I am impressed with the GOTV efforts.

The only thing that surprised me was not having more star Democrats in GA more often to stimulate more early and mail-in voting.

But it does look the Obama, Biden, and Harris will be here over the weekend and Monday to GOTV for Election Day and that's pretty darn good.

[Ilsa]

31. Obama is returning? I wonder where he's scheduled to be? nt

[aikoaiko]

32. Oh, that might be an error. I think I saw something from 4 weeks ago and thought it was current.

Still, a Georgia Democrat can hope.

[cry baby]

36. I sent 100 postcards to dem voters. nt

[keithbvadu2]

38. Knock knock

[Vivienne235729]

39. I sent out a million postcards. Hope you got one of mine.

[Ilsa]

42. I may have. It's funny, because

I got a couple of postcards, for certain. When I got each one, I wondered if it was a DUer who might have sent it. It was certainly possible. I felt gratitude.

The impersonal mass mailings are tiresome, and easy to recycle.

Thank you for your hard work for Jon and Rev.

[Vivienne235729]

44. YW! I'm glad you got a couple. I'm just going to pretend you got mine.😁

Here's hoping to take GA next week! Cheers!
