Pluggers by Rick McKee for November 04, 2024

…or a direct to trash box!

I get a heck of a lot of it, but then I also donate to a few candidates and humanitarian causes. It’s like a shark when it senses blood in the water.

E mail eh. E for election.

Mail? Who gets campaign stuff in the mail in 2024?Oh. Pennsylvania.

During Medicare Annual Enrollment Period also.

Ummmm …. Wood burner Food !

I was thinking of moving my garbage can next to it!

Also need one for Medicare open enrollment notices

Perhaps a Burn Barrel beside the Mailbox post? Lately, it would never stop smoldering.

Especially if you live in a swing state like me. (PA) Between the commercials, mail and the phone calls I’m going crazy.

Wish I had a fire place. With all the campaign mailers, I’d have more than enought fire starting materila to last all winter.

How about them unsolicited 2025 calendars.

Two steps from mailbox to recycling bin.

Just set out one of those oil drums with the instruction on it to put all political flyers there. You know what we do with paper in an old oil drum.

I live in a (up to now) solid “red” area of a solidly “blue” state. Gerrymandering after the 2020 census now has me in a toss-up district with no incumbent (redistricting put him in another district). The campaigns are ugly and quantity of mail and TV and even social media ads is ridiculous since the new state assembly district is in the same situation.

Curiously, I have not gotten a single piece of mail from any candidate for any office this year.

I vote how I like and register independent. It definitely cuts down on the junk mail.

You think that’s difficult, try sorting it at the post office.

they haven’t seen my email inbox

I am SO ready for the media frenzy to be over !

Last load awaits my pick up.

What annoys the heck out of me is that I constantly get – texts – from what I politely refer to as “the other party”, as many as 30 a day. I have never been in contact with them and had the phone number for well over a decade before it started. Started with text messages about the congressman in the next district to ours – but since phone numbers overlap I figured it was a just a mistake. I now get texts from candidates all over the country asking for money constantly. The more they send an annoy me – the less likely I am to vote for them.
