Are you tired of all those political robocalls and calls from earnest volunteers? Did you know, they’re tired of talking to you too?
Are you tired of all those glossy, oversized postcards from candidates touting their accomplishments โ and maybe running down their opponents? Did you know, they’re tired of sending them to you too?
Just vote. When campaigns find out you’ve sent in your ballot, they’ll leave you alone. No more (or almost no more) calls. No more (or almost no more) oversized postcards. You can sit back with the beverage of your choice and watch the political circus unfold before your eyes,ย knowing you’ve done your patriotic chore. Better yet, volunteer for the candidate(s) of your choice and be one of those phoners or the doorbell ringers helping to get out the vote.
Send in your ballot!

I have a nice conversation when they call. I would say what I said but I don’t want david safier accusing me of hijacking the tread again.
Hey Cap’n, nice jab. Well done.
Clearly you want people to vote early, that good government stuff. I just wanted to tell what I say when establishment democrats (they used to be the clinton wing of the party until nov. 8 2016) call me and I get to tell them what I think. I am new here so a lot of self censorship. I have been fighting the republican fascist police state of arizona for 50 years. (every since I got my draft notice!) I from time to time.have gotten a few licks in
I don’t know if my comment took so I will just say I am new here so a lot of self censorship as you clearly wanted a vote early good government comment. I just wanted to tell what I say when the democratic establishment calls and also if any anti-establishment democrat running. To give them encouragement. (they will need it here in az!)
