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.
I don’t think you can stop the calls or texts, elections are a product just like everything else here and those are the ads.
They got your info and you can’t take it back now
These organizations trade phone lists, kind of like what telemarketers do. Sometimes the lists can be outdated. Unfortunately replying “stop” to each one is the only way that’s going to slow it down.
Responding to them only confirms a person exists at your number. Flag them as spam and ignore them.
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.
I moved from Wisconsin a decade ago and I still get political shit from their parties. If there’sa good answer for this I hope you get it, I think this is just my life now.
Get a new number. No really, it helped me in the same situation.
This is horrifying
Verizon at least has a block by area code setting and that’s saved me a lot of headache
