24 more hours and primary season will be over here in Ohio! I have received 23 calls since 8:00 am this morning – all automated saying “support my candidate”.
One of the nice things about being a registered Green is that both parties completely ignore you. No overflowing mailboxes and robocalls, come election time, just peace and quiet. And when a candidate does contact you, it’s so obviously a “let’s tell the Greenies we love trees” kind of thing that it’s laughable.
In my house, I’m the one who calls/dashes off emails to Sen. Kerry and Kennedy, but I never get mailings from either of them, though they do show up for the registered Dem. in the house. Fine w/ me, really. Being Green means less junk mail!
