How to donate to a candidate without getting more postal mail.
Do you like donating to Democrats, but dislike the added postal mail from campaigns for environmental reasons?

If you sign up for "Act Blue Express," you can check a box and they will tell the campaign that you want email, not postal mail.

2. Ideally, campaign websites would also have a checkbox...
...for people who don't want postal mail.

But in the meantime, every Democratic candidate seems to be listed at Act Blue.

3. Just went to mine to give her a cookie for voting the right way
trust me, they need a webmaster

A box would be way over their technical abilities!

4. In the meantime I will start subscribing...
to Republican sites so I get their alerts.

I have a favorite method of subscribing.

In the following fields during 2004 I entered:

First: My first name
Last: My last name followed with "Hates Bush" which resulted in campaign snail mail that had "Hates Bush" following my name.


You need to highlight above to read the method used.
