I just received a mass mailing from Bloomberg

I found it puzzling because it did not ask me to do anything. It simply touted some of his accomplishments.

Does this kind of communication work? I understand that he doesn’t need or want contributions. But wouldn’t most people simply toss this aside?

(I’m not among those who dislike Bloomberg or wish he had not entered the race.)

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

That’s how he appeared in Chicago when he spoke . He did not ask for votes or campaign help & certainly not $
Sometimes if the candidate is the only one or the first one that reaches out to that voter I would think it could work and influence their decision

I usually get a few over-sized postcards a day, all very similar, with some family pictures (usually including a big happy dog) and some statements of motherhood and apple pie. It is not uncommon to get duplicates on a single day.
