They did this in Alaska, and many other places, it all depends upon the reaction in that particular part of the country and their sensiblities.

Did it in Virginia http://www.cbs5az.com/story/19981906/mailer-lists-neighbors-names-addresses-voting-history

Did it in Indiana

“But so-called voter shaming has become standard nationwide, with recent examples in Alaska, North Carolina and Virginia, Democratic Party officials say. The mailers have proven particularly effective in competitive races, increasing voter turnout by as much as eight percentage points, according to a Yale University study in 2008.”

Yes, it’s very effective. Cruz needs to follow through with this, and not apologize. Make it seems like it’s a crucial thing to vote this time. He can say, I’m saying to vote for me, I’m saying vote...

I think, personally, it’s going to work.
