homeowners with Harris/Walz yard signs getting postcard notices that immigrants will be moved into their home

?ve=1&tl=1

The postcard is addressed to "Resident" with a Kamala Harris logo posted on the front of the postcard.

"We will be moving a family of 4 from the country of Belize into your home on 11-3-2024. They will need food, toiletries, and transportation. Thank you!" the card reads.

It is not clear where the postcards came from as there was no political organization or return address listed.

"Well, someone sure seems to be upset with my choice of yard sign. I thought it was pretty funny, so I decided to share it with you all. I could seriously use the help with the leaves, if true…," the caption read on the Reddit post.

Spend money on the ABSOLUTE LEAST likely voters for their chump.

Well, I guess they've got to "own the libs" if they can't "own a working brain".

I wonder who came up with the idea.

to drive around looking for Kamala signs, recording their addresses, buying custom postcards, filling them in by hand, and mailing them. And they did this to try to persuade the most likely people to vote for Kamala (people willing to obtain and display campaign signs), and do so in a state where Trump has no chance to win even if they worked.

These people aren't the best and brightest, folks.

So that would mean that the person just put them in the mail box on the house themselves

And if anyone has video on their property, who got a post card, they could maybe figure out who did this

These dipshits could have spent that time and money trying to get GOP voters to the polls. Instead they wasted it all on hate-gratification. Losers.

Which is how Republicans operate and know that is what motivates their followers. They are afraid of others.

The postcards were sent to a home in Massachusetts. Blue country, for sure. I live in NC and we have been bombarded with fear inducing political ads for weeks. The only thing I watch on commercial TV is football this time of year. The ads have been relentless, negative, and fear inducing. Fear doesn't work on Dems, and the right wingers are too stupid to know it.
We shall see tomorrow, but I predict their campaign of fear induction will backfire.

Voter intimidation, anyone?

When I owned my big house in Texas, I rented the upstairs to a young family of 4 from Nepal. They were legal immigrants, and some of the nicest people you would ever want to meet, unlike some of my texan neighbors who egged my house because of the Obama sign I had out front.
