I got a mailing from Pence. Yuck. Do I open it or mark it Return to Sender?
Second question:
I have been trying to figure out how Pence goqt my name and address. I have never donated to a Republican or even an Independent. My best guess is that Catholic Charities, to which I donated last year, sold its mailing list to Pence and other Republicans. Should I ask CC if they sold their mailing list and tell that I am very unhappy about it?

I will take the junk mail pile, find those envelopes, put as much of the junk mail into those envelopes, and then put them back in the mailbox. The USPS comes by and takes it all back.
It's like "concierge trash service".

(62,444 posts)Because that is usually how political direct mailers get addresses.
And, if you aren't registered to vote, then wtf are you doing here?

(21,849 posts)If that is why Pence sent me mail, they must have money to burn because the information shows that I am not receptive to his message.

I respond by telling the morons they should "know their market" since I'm a lifelong Democrat.

(7,504 posts)fill it up with as weighty stuff as you can and return it to them. It will come back postage due. Perhaps they'll get the point.
