With 1 day to go, WHY am I still being inundated by Dems begging for money?

It's everybody President & Mrs. Obama, Chuck Schumer, lots of different surrogates not to mention the emails from the various Senate & House wannabee's. I know money is the most important thing to any campaign, but ONE DAY LEFT, can't they leave me alone?

I don't open the emails. They start with, "It's too late" or "Hillary has lost". Pisses me off and I delete them w/o opening.

with the number 25 to pitch in $25 towards the final get out the vote efforts. I was intrigued by the simplicity and replied. $25 was instantly deducted from my credit card. Lol. Amazing tech.

up. If the win depends on a dollar or two from me this late in the game they have more problems then my few bucks will solve.
