1. I'm about ready to unsubscribe to the Biden/Harris campaign emails

Back in March I calculated how much I could afford to give this year and set up for once a week donations. I cannot give more so the constant barrage is getting annoying.

We should be able to go to the bottom of the emails and unsubscribe. I haven't tried it yet, but probably will tomorrow. It's worked before for me for other campaign emails.

What really annoys me are the solicitations for donations from campaigns that are not in my district or even my state. I am just not interested in doing that campaign by campaign. For that I would donate to the DCCC or the DSCC, if I am willing. For all of those I have used the unsubscribe option and it seems to have helped.

More than I normally donate to a campaign for the entire election season. They should have a selection in their database for those who are already donating.

4. Delete and/or unsubscribe. Not a big deal.

We're all under pressure. But I think Biden/Harris will be compliant with data privacy issues (for example, unsolicited or unwanted emails).

problem with Trump e-mails. I unsubscribed a couple months ago but soon as soon as you click
on a poll or something you go right on again. One day this week I got over 60 of them in one day.
They really defeat their purpose if there were a couple I would read them but when there are 60 I just select all and delete.
I still send in a monthly donation. far more than I have ever given to a political campaign.
