The mailers in question were mailed using USPS marketing program EDDM/ECRWSS/ECRWSH - this is a sign that USPS has this name variation still listed as a current resident.

The sender is basically the USPS’s mailing list instead of their own internal one (voter list). These mailers are mailed to every address on an USPS mail route.

How to stop these mailers (political & non-political) in past resident names - Ask mail carrier to MLNA (moved left no address) the name variation.

NOTE: Some mail carriers won’t MLNA non-first class mail so you may have to beg/bribe them especially if the name variation isn’t receiving any other mail. Obtain the VACANT form from local USPS and fill this out with the names of everyone who should receive mail at said address and place in your mailbox. Attach a list of past resident names that need to be MLNA - don’t forget bribe snacks!

  • Past resident - if the mailer isn’t ECRWSS/ECRWSH - sign they haven’t updated their address on their voter registration. Contact your state election board and have your address removed.

How to check if someone still has your address/phone number listed on their voter registration - search address/phone number in websites like voterrecords.com & https://voteref.com
