Because you can live anywhere and volunteer for a candidate. In the 2020 election I volunteered to write post cards to remind voters of dates, how to register, etc…. My cards were pre-addressed to voters in GA. Mine was through my labor union so they gave me the cards and a script.

I was today years old when I learned this is a thing.

Yep. I actually have friends formerly from PA but now live elsewhere (but who still have aging parents here) who are doing phone and message banking for Josh Shapiro.

I really wish that wasn’t a thing. I continue to get shit from people for Oz

So do we. My daughter gets the mail when we get home from picking her up from school. We have fun figuratively wiping our asses with the mailings on our way up the driveway...

Yes we actually do do that...
