As a veteran, I deserve to know why we sent over 7,000 of our soldiers, including my family, to their deaths fighting the war on terror so that someone like Mastriano can run for governor instead of being waterboarded at Guantanamo?

Do you want the real answer?
I can only guess that he hasn't been indicted because of the election.
Mailers are 100% tailored to the voter. Our household has a democrat, a republican and a newly registered 19 year old voter. So we get everything here, I was saving the ads and laughing at them. The best ones were addressed to the new voter in our household, one with emojis all over it clearly marketed to her age group. The other addressed to her had a stranger things theme and graphics, Republican things, it’s awesome I saved it! We get about 10 ads a day by mail.

I loved the Stranger Things reference. Clever.
We get all the trash. Most angering part is mailers directly from candidates are paid with tax payer money. They literally are using our money to annoy us.

As I get older I realize I now vote for what I want my party to be or what it was at one time. No candidate encourages me and I find myself voting against the other candidate. At this timentgey are all paid and if they win will be expected to support their causes or be terminated for the next mouth piece.

lmaoooo my place has my die-hard republican dad (who thinks both the republican candidates for senate and governor are nutjobs), my mom (who usually votes blue but is more moderate than i am) and then me (also blue) and the only mailer we've received is one for the republican state representative and senate candidates and a single brochure for the democrat state senate candidate.

>"is what I received in the mail based on my registered party?"
Yes. If you're unaffiliated, you'll get bullshit from both sides.

No problem. It's kinda funny because I can tell the affiliation of the previous owners of my house due to how many partisan ads that showed up addressed to them.
I'm a registered Democrat and I got a bullshit flyer from an anti-choice group saying not to vote for the Democratic candidates since they kill babies
I'm unaffiliated. Got some mail addreesed to me, probably 80% anti-democrat. My wife is registered R, so she had been getting a flood of same, with some pro-R mail too.
So i suspect you are correct that the parties target you based on registration.
I was unaffiliated for several years until 2016 when I went party due to primaries. I got a lot of mailers for both parties prior to that, but now I get texts for party candidates instead of mailers, which is 100% more annoying.

You voted for trump.
They think you are a moron.
And they arent wrong

Just a bunch of "Biden likes John Fetterman!" propaganda as if that's literally the worst thing they could come up with
But this week, only stuff with Oz's face plastered all over it
I'm registered democrat and my husband is republican but hasn't voted for a republican in a few years. We don't get the same political junk mail. He gets mail from the republicans and I get it from the democrats.

I have been a registered Democrat since I was 18, I've always received more republican mailers than Democrat. Yesterday was 3 for Oz, 1 for fetterman.
