I didn’t receive one Democrat phone call, e-mail or campaign mailing. How did they know to not waste any time or money on me? The Republicans sent me lots of e-mails and brochures. I received lots of Republican phone calls. The Democrats have a pretty good intelligence gathering service. Post office workers?

Republicans are too busy paying taxes.

In many cases the folks running the campaign will have the last voting records for an area and they'll decide to simply not mail campaign material to folks in certain places BECAUSE NO ONE THERE EVER VOTED FOR THEM.

Much of that information is fairly fresh since it will have been produced during redistricting so the parties will know how to get so many Democrats here and there and so many Republicans over yonder.

Telephone number locations are a little more difficult to position, but they can do that too.

The Postal Service is prohibited by law from selling mailing list information, and your ordinary street carrier probably doesn't know enough about you to figure out if you are a Republican or a Democrat anyway.

Think of your plight as just really good dumb luck!

Both parties see you’ve voted in, say, three Republican primaries in a row and so using the voting records they know how you’ll vote, if you vote.

Why do you think Obama moved the 2010 CENSUS into the White House?

With that kind of raw data at your disposal, what could you have done? ANYONE could be elected with that data.
