bald1Text messages and emails from a state I haven't lived in for 50 YEARS!
I've tried everything I can think of without success. I continue to receive political messages from Pennsylvania, both State and Allegany County.
Don't know whose list I'm on that these campaigns are using but it is beyond ridiculous for, as said, I haven't lived in PA for over 50 years!
Anyone know of a silver bullet I can use to kill this shit?

Sorry I can't help, but if you do find out PLEASE post how.
I stupidly donated to Mitt Romney's presidential campaign and every week I get spammed by different RINOs looking for money. I block every number but it never stops.

You tried texting back STOP
?
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Fly-SigReply to texts with STOP and then block the number.
For emails, block the address then delete the emails.

HRKAren't political messages allowed and not considered SPAM by the providers, all you can do is block them using the phone block text feature, but they'll probably change the number.
I get them from people wanting money for Dummy Whatshername Shitz or some other D party member, and I've never registered as anything but R.
They are just blasting stuff out, just mark as spam delete and move on...

DennisMHaven't lived in Georgia in over 25 years.
Got barraged by texts in 2020 reminding me to vote, referencing the county that I moved from in 1995.
It takes a significant amount of money and effort to pull off a decent voter fraud operation.

RoguepilotSome guy named John must have had my phone number before me - at least 20 years ago. In 2020 I received several texts reminding me to vote for Biden…this year the texts are asking John (Me) to run for local office as a democrat…..I’m tempted to text back, but maybe keeping John from the reminders is good for my side?

selogicCheck and see if you are still on the voter rolls . It would seem that you would have been purged but stranger things have happened .
