4 years ago I was a Pennsylvania resident and registered voter. I have since moved to another state and have switched my voter registration. I had assumed changing my registration would be sufficient however, I am on some list of PA voters bc I get A LOT (oh my god it’s so much) of political texts and calls. It’s too late for this election and perhaps it won’t be so bad next time, and I wish they weren’t wasting their time and that my inbox weren’t so full.

      Not entirely true. A number of them are definitely spam, but there are many organizations that do text outreach and there is definitely a person at the other end. They will remove you from their lists if you reply with stop.

      If they’re sending political messages, the number is already confirmed as matching a PA voter. Texting STOP is the way to go. If that doesn’t work, THEN mark as spam. If it gets too annoying, set up a wall of shame on Twitter. (Almost) No politician wants bad publicity.
