Over the past two days I have been getting several texts like these...anyone else getting this BS?
67665 67666
(I find it offensive that they assume I am a female when I am a white male in my mid twenties. So racist and so triggered! I need my safe space! To the shooting range!)
Once you turn your ballot in, those should stop.

Mailed it Monday I believe, so hopefully soon!
Your replies are much too polite.
My buddy Steven got one, he wasn't as nice

Haven't gotten any texts like that. Must be too old. [ROFL1]
I bet Lauren would be interested in seeing your man parts. You should send her a picture.
Oh, and you're probably just getting these messages because you're a registered democrat.
My wife has been getting these. She is unaffiliated.
She wont let me reply.
I have not recieved any of them.

They're 'bots anyway, nobody will look at the responses...
And I haven't got any...further proof that I'd you don't live in the metro area, you don't matter politically in Colorado
The only thing I keep getting is phone survey calls. Getting tired of telling them I don't live in Colorado anymore. It's becoming a daily occurance. Do not call list is useless.

Haven't seen any texts like that...but I could have fun with them. Actually, I just saw my first "Hillary/Kaine" yard sign yesterday. They're not too common here.

They exempted political calls from the do not call list... they are "above the law"

Dropped my ballot off the day after I got it and once they scanned it all phone crap stopped.

We were getting more and more political type phone calls and getting annoyed about it. The no-call list was not stopping it. My wife found a way to flag useless calls. Our land line is through Xfinity (Comcast), which has another filtering system. Now, all these calls only ring once... so when the phone rings, you wait for a second ring before you get up to answer. Sure, it would be better to not ring at all, but it is still better than having to decipher the caller ID to decide if it should be answered.

Honestly, not that I drive around neighborhoods...but I've seen very few myself. [Dunno] I think 1 real one and 1 weird home-made looking one, even in very purple JeffCo. I see a fair amount of Perlmutter BS, but even that is much less than in previous election years.
I'm truly working on the assumption that no one supports their candidate and basically 85% of voters are out voting against the other candidate rather than for theirs.
My buddy got another I told him to have fun with the next one for a bit

These are the going rates for that kinda business Ray.

Cell phone, no land line. I think the next survey call I get, I'm going to screw with them.
I would enjoy some of these calls. Its fun to troll.

Happy to say I've seen more Hillary for Prison signs than Hillary for pres signs.

maybe just try "umm, what's in it for me?" and see if they want to pay for your vote
Ask for the Maddona special? Ewww..... need brain bleach.

As much as those texts and calls suck, the Dems do a good job of getting their folks (and dead folks, and folks with demintia, etc) to vote. They get out the (Dem) vote and the GOP doesn't do $hit to get out any conservative folks who may be on the fence or forgetful. Hillary rallies can't generate more than a few people but you can bet they will have record numbers voting anyway. The Dems have a ground game unlike anything the GOP can muster up.

Yeah, they are especially good at getting out the cemetary vote.

Must have got my ballot scanned today, went the whole day without "Vote for Killary" text [Beer]

Gross. And ingenious. I doubt the GOP has figured out how this works yet, but there's no such thing as a fair fight.
So I received no texts until well after I turned in my ballot. Just for the record.

I'm unaffiliated, live in Lakewood, and haven't gotten any. I've had buddies who had, and their responses were....entertaining.
