The personalized letters target individual Iowa voters and identifies them as having failed to vote in prior elections. They are admonished and then encouraged to vote this year. In addition the letters identify the neighbors of the voter, and provides their voting history.
The text reads:
"You are receiving this election notice because of low expected voter turnout in your area. Your individual voting history as well as your neighbors' are public record. Their scores are published below, and many of them will see your score as well. CAUCUS ON MONDAY TO IMPROVE YOUR SCORE and please encourage your neighbors to caucus as well. A follow-up notice may be issued following Monday's caucuses".
In an effort to shame the recipient, the notice also informs the targeted voter their neighbors have also been notified of the recipients poor voting record.

wow...so surprised....maybe not....that you agree with this.
Cruz is the Supreme Asshat
“haven’t most of us had that WTF moment of sitting on a curb pondering what just happened?”
Yes, but not to the point we were taken into protective custody.
Trump has three rallies in Iowa today. He should get one of these and hold it up and talk about it at each.
Actually I read again today about 7 people quitting Cruz’s campaign.
It was referred to but no article. Anyway...must be something to this.
Conservatives with poor voting records need to get themselves snapped out of it. The normal tactics clearly haven’t worked for them so they need some tough love.And I thought Ted was the creep.
Like I said, this thing wreaks of a last minute hit job. I won’t believe it until I am convinced that the Cruz campaign admits to it...and I am not convinced. If they did do it they should just apologize, remind everybody that Trump’s Johnny come lately so-called conservative transformation (with no record to back it up) can’t be trusted, and then move on to victory in Iowa as planned.
Expenditures for Mercer’s Keep the Promise PAC recent efforts in Iowa.
Looks like he funnels money into the Super Pac, then he pays his own firm, Cambridge Analytica
Oddball companies that are paid large sums of money like paid $1,095,000 Rigel Strategies LLC, office mailing address going to UPS stores... Hmmmm, tracks covered as well as possible so we can see who is working with whom trying to control the election.

Way To Go Ted; so others accuse Trump of outrageousness but are all sacrosanct when Cruz does something? Eye Roll.
Delusional.
Me too, another Freeper had a brilliant idea on horror going on in Europe with the rapefugees. Offer asylum to all the cute European girls getting abused. I thought that was a terrific idea.
You have warning bells? Really? When you support someone as defunct at Trump, and you think Cruz is who we should be worried about? All because of some stupid mailer?
For all we know, one of his campaign people put this crap out there, and he wasn’t involved at all. With thousands of people working all around the state of Iowa, who is to say Cruz is the one who came up with and implemented this idea?
And to go on, as if Cruz is the biggest threat to our nation, as you do, is delusional and completely out of touch with reality. Unless of course you’re projecting, because realistically, this entire country, is heading toward disaster if someone of Trumps ilk gets in. You think we have it bad now....just wait until a 2nd egomaniacal narcissist gets in and starts running the show, the way Trump claims he’s going to.
Funny how you guys look at Ted Cruz with a fine tooth comb for all of his faults, ignoring ALL of his credits and positives (which are plentiful and many), but when it comes to Trump, you do the exact opposite, ignoring ALL of his faults (which are plentiful and many) and focusing on his few positives. The delusion and complete out of touch way people fawn over this man is SO reminiscent of 2008 and Obama’s run for the WH. And what’s worse, is not only do we have history to show us the path that leads to, but we have someone who is telling us once again, what his plans are. Except with Obama, he told us he was going to do with statements that had hidden meaning or read-between-the-lines implications. But Trump is saying it straight out. Sure he’s saying things we all want to hear, just like Obama did. Hopey Changey crap. But he’s also telling us that HE plans on doing things HIMSELF. HE doesn’t have a problem with Executive Orders (F the Constitution or the Constitutional process - which by the way, he NEVER mentions), he has no problem writing EO’s himself, so HE can do what HE thinks is right. Just listen to the man, when he’s talking about his ideas for the future, and you can hear his big idea is essentially of being a King, wrapped in the promise of making America great again.
If you believe all of his rhetoric, than I have a bridge to sell.
bfl
While its good to see many Cruz people be repelled by this type of stuff, it is telling that the most hard-core spammers and cheerleaders on FR, after weeks of virtue signaling, shamming, intimidation, and even fomenting a revolt against the site owner, are completely ok with this.
But they will still swear to you that they value liberty and freedom more.
Notice that Obama (Peas be upon him) didn’t call out the names of the neighbors.
Cruz did.
That’s sleazy.
Is it a bridge to Canada?
You’ll never hear that and you probably know it. Cruz will address this the same way he addressed his Canadian citizenship/ eligibility to be president and his dishonesty about ‘’liquidating their savings’’. Ignore it and it will go away.
If Cruz had a freeper name it would be GodGunsGoldman.
You might not like it, but you are stalked for your vote every election. You never worked for a campaign, have you?
You don't see it like this blatant example - and it was a blunder head move by Cruz.
Nope not done by Cruz.......you will see.
