Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

In WI and will take the $ and vote how I want. I assume they have some other data preventing this.
I mean go for it... I assume the strategy on the whole is just a reverse of the supression strategies etc... IE I assume the vast majority of the petitions are going in areas that overwhelmingly voted for trump... and the contact information will be used to overwhelmingly flood with reminders and pushes for them to go out and vote.
IE it's a legal absolute no to coersively hinder or push voting to people who will vote a certain way, but in this overly tracked flooded with data world. You can find the trends that allow you to target things that aren't illegal, but have overwhelming correlation.
Hmm, so then what we need to do is create honey pot phishing schemes pretending to be musk offering money to vote, but then never send the money, and send out incorrect information regarding the date/time/place of the vote. In addition get people to submit their bank account info to you so you can 'electronically deposit' the money. Only instead, submit the account info to online forums used by criminals.
The end result will be that people won't get paid, won't show up to vote at the right time/place, and then have all sorts of fraud attempts on their accounts, and they'll blame it on musk
