Unbelievable – Ted Cruz Campaign Sends Out Personal “Shaming Letters” To Iowa Voters…
conservativetreehouse ^ | 1/30/2016 | sundance

Posted on 01/29/2016 10:28:45 PM PST by 20yearsofinternet

The personalized letters target individual Iowa voters and identifies them as having failed to vote in prior elections. They are admonished and then encouraged to vote this year. In addition the letters identify the neighbors of the voter, and provides their voting history.



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. A follow-up notice may be issued following Monday's caucuses".

In an effort to shame the recipient, the notice also informs the targeted voter their neighbors have also been notified of the recipients poor voting record.

Get back to your Mark Levin rewind download.

Get back to Democrat Underground where you can revel in bashing of conservative radio hosts who've been fighting within government and outside of it to save our country from liberal socialist decay.

Trump doesn’t insult voters.

Funny you mention that because months ago I got a few emails from the Cruz campaign asking for donations. I disliked the tone of the emails and I was pretty surprised actually, because I expected otherwise. The idea of Ted Cruz has turned out to be different than the reality of Ted Cruz.

This reminds of something the Jehovah’s Witnesses do when someone leaves the fold.

Cruz has at least 30% more official endorsements from politicians than public figures than Trump last I checked.

But normal people don't even know who 29 percent of them even are.

At this point I bet these endorsers as wishing they kept their mouths shut.

I have read numerous articles about his time in college and many of his peers were very open about not being able to stand him. It had nothing to do with RINOs.

If "most" people like you in a place like Harvard, a place like New York City, or a place like Washington D.C., you're doing something wrong. These are cesspools of liberal socialist thought. I wear it as a proud badge of honor when I'm hated by leftists. Doesn't it baffle you that a politician "no one likes" won an upset election in Texas for statewide office and is now one of the top 3 candidates for the presidency? Everyone knows you're spewing Trumpian lies and smears, most of them imported from the Democrat playbook.

This is just nuts.

I'm pretty much speechless. If this proves true then everything about Ted Cruz is a facade. The nasty that took over FR is pretty much explained.

How could they be that tone deaf?

You are preaching to the deranged. How could anyone think for an instant that this was good politics to pull this stunt on Midwest Republicans? These people don't want their personal business shared with the neighbors.

I'm sure they're furious. This will be all over social media.

It's a weekend game-changer, and not in a good way for Ted.

However if it is Cruz, which I highly doubt, then it would appear he’s adopted Trump tactics...Therefore... we should expect Trumpsters to be cheering that Cruz has “B*lls” and is just calling it like it is...so not a problem.

Witness the twisted logic of a low IQ Cruzbot.

Wow. This is sleazy. I can’t believe anyone would think this would help. It may bring out the vote, but if I got one of these I sure as hell wouldn’t vote for the guy who sent it.

At this rate, I wouldn’t be surprised if the next notice Cruz sends out says, If you don’t vote, you’re going to hell.

***

Well, more than a few of his (apparent) supporters are already saying that if you don’t vote for Cruz, you’re going to Hell, so it’s not too big of a leap.

And I am dead serious about that.
