Ted Cruz Sent "Voter Shaming Letter" To Iowa Professor of Political Science and the recipient eviscerates Cruz's campaign claim in an article via the New Yorker:
One of the targeted voters of Ted Cruz's campaign shaming letters is a political scientist in Iowa. He was none to happy with the message, or the data of himself and his neighbors.
In Iowa, although voter registration information is free and available to the public, voter history is not. That information is maintained by the secretary of state, which licenses it to campaigns, super PACs, polling firms, and any other entity that might want it. So was the Cruz campaign accurately portraying the voter histories of Iowans? Or did it simply make up the numbers?
It seems to have made them up. Dave Peterson, who happens to be a political scientist at Iowa State University and is well-acquainted with the research on "social pressure" turnout techniques, received a mailer last week. The Cruz campaign pegged his voting percentage at fifty-five per cent, which seems to be the most common score that the campaign gives out. (All of the neighbors listed on Peterson's mailer also received a score of fifty-five per cent.)

So what you are saying this that no one stole anything from her.
Thanks.
Guessing you meant the HUGH manatee, as in
The possibility that someone else did this to make Cruz look bad hadn't even occurred to me because, as the New Yorker article says, "the mailer does clearly indicate that it's 'Paid for by Cruz for President.'"
Now I wonder how hard it would be to get away with putting a false 'paid for by' disclaimer on a mailer like that. Guessing you can't just take boxes of them into the post office and pay with cash. But, if anyone could beat the system, it's _________.
(Trump says whatever he believes his prey wants to hear. That is "The Art of the Deal." Always.)
You’ve been here long enough. You don’t know the joke?
Lol!

that’s right. Watch. When the results are finalized ted will win.
By the way, just as I said in another comment, the Sunday talking heads didn’t even consider the mailer news worthy as so many Trump supporters expected.
Send me a note, via FRmail, and I’ll fill in some historical blanks about President Nixon. :-)
I most certainly will. Thank you!
The more people who know factual history, the better able they are to understand and make choices about our current times.
Not sure if it got posted , but share it with others .. it’s very important to know who the puppets are
