(54,506 posts)They have been doing this in many elections where they see the race as tight. That they are even bothering to do it in this election means they are terrified they might lose--a good sign, actually. If they are doing the mailing from another state, it means it is a nationally coordinated effort and an FBI affair, though they'll do nothing as long as Sessions is AG.
The Republican National Committee and their Senate Committee will be keeping arm's length in case any of the perps are caught, but this has been a tactic of the national Republicans for MANY years. The only good news is that it means they are nervous, that their own internal polling shows the seat is vulnerable to the point where they might lose it despite their electoral fraud tactics.

Being handwritten isn't some dirty tactic. It's a legitimate way to not fall into the junk mail pile.
(This is an entirely separate issue from sending any kind of false info to voters in either party.)

It was just a coincidence that my daughter got that note today.
I'll delete if you think my response is not helpful.
I'll delete anyway as a gesture of peace. I can be wrong. It's a learning process.
