In reply to the discussion: Anyone know anything about Greater Wisconsin Political Fund? [View all]RJLange
(2 posts)15. Are there different mailings?
My daughter received a similar mailing as what most of you are describing.
It has the list of neighbors and their voting record, but there is no mention
of Scott Walker. It is only a request to do your civic duty and vote. That being
said - I find it disconcerting and 'creepy' that my name is on someone else's
card with my name, address and voting record (correct or not). AND... IF
THERE ARE DIFFERENT CARDS, that mine might be on a card that may
indicate how I voted (correct or not). This is not righteous behavior for
anyone associated with either party. I am not happy with the DU and agree
with another responder that they should apologize for this lapse in judgment.

I feel the same way, as a tool for GOTV, embarrassment is counter-productive.

Could this be one of the Republican dirty tricks? Others have asked this as well.

The fact that anyone votes or does not vote has never been private information.

I think mine was specific for this block of homes, but I don't think it's from one database
