Many thanks for the input. I’m a registered Independent, so the e-mail and USPS donation requests no longer come. And since changing my affiliation to Independent, none of our local politicians have ever come to my door to ask me to vote for them. So I guess there’s that to it.
One thing I don’t understand about OK’s closed primaries is why, when I went to my local polling place in the next election, the poll workers there told me I was invited to vote on the Democrat ballot, but not the Republican ballot. Weird.

Those poll workers were in violation of campaign election law.
Invites such as that are “campaigning on behalf”.
