“What is the context here? What did Cruz do?”

There is an earlier post here on FR that outlines what was done/ Basically, Cruz is trying to threaten voters to go out and caucus. It was basically a card with the voter’s name on it, along with six of his or her neighbors togehter with a percentage of those voters participation in the caucuses and a Letter Grade Cruz is done, because of this crap!

Teddy in the finest tradition of evangelical conservatism sent out intimidating, misleading shaming letters to the Iowa voters.

Total and Epic Fail!

I dunno but he sent me yet another damn money beg email today despite numerous requests to stop. As far as I’m concerned his so-called “ground game” is nothing but harassment and probably just a hair inside the border of legality, knowing a lawyer is calling the shots.

The Cruz campaign sent this notice via postal mail to Iowans. Very big brother of them and in violation of law.

SHAME ON YOU,  SENATOR CRUZ

 

Tom Hinkeldy, a resident of Alta, Iowa, tweeted a photo (which was later deleted because it included his personal address) on Friday evening of a mailer Sen. Ted Cruz’s campaign sent addressed to his wife, Steffany. The mailer was a large card printed to look like a manila envelope on one side and was labeled in all capital letters, “ELECTION ALERT,” “VOTER VIOLATION,” “PUBLIC RECORD,” and “FURTHER ACTION NEEDED.”

The mailer said in red letters at the top, “VOTING VIOLATION.”  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. Follow-up notices may be issued following Monday's caucuses. 

 

Cruz spokesman Rick Tyler confirmed to IJ Review that the mailer was theirs in a phone call Friday evening, saying that the targeting had been “very narrow, but the caucuses are important and we want people who haven’t voted before to vote.”

MoveOn did similar voter-shaming mailers in 2012 for Obama.
