My wife got this false and deceptive text message on her local SB number.
We notified County and State elections offices, and hope agents to track down the culprits. Has anyone else had this problem?
Deceptive Election Scam?

They will keep coming, even if you choose the “Stop” option. Anyone who thinks the cons have even a shred of conscience or decency has not been following their descent into malevolence over the last few decades.
Anyone who thinks the Dems have a shred more conscience or decency than the ‘cons’ are unaware of their descent into a carefully constructed propaganda world detached from the reality of the last few decades.
7:54 – You come up with decent inadvertent parody amidst your ridiculous nonsense.
Sure, Dems bombard people with spam around elections. But it never goes into the elder fraud and credit card fraud realm of GOP fundraising. Many PACs, including that of the former Potus, send emails claiming to be directly from Cheetoh himself saying things like “I’m disappointed you haven’t donated yet” or “I saw you on a list of our top donors.” Older donors, not knowing how mass emails work, are scammed by these fake messages. They also enroll people for monthly donations unless they do a convoluted opt-out.
The bottom of the website says it’s paid for by the California Republican Party. Not surprised.
It does not make sense that the GOP would send this message out, but if they did, shame on them. Equally as disturbing is that the DNC has spent over $50,000,000 (yes, fifty million) promoting GOP candidates across the country.
– Amy Klobuchar: “Not a big fan of Democrats spending on GOP candidates.”
– CNN: Jake Tapper questions Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee chair Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney (D-NY) about his party supporting far-right Republican candidates in the primaries.
– Kari Lake? C’mon!!!
So, yeah….%*it happens, but spending money on “the other guy” takes the cake!!!
Red_Creek: If what you are saying is true, then I hope these outlets will retract their stories/reports:
– NYT (July 2022): Democrats spending millions promoting far-right GOP candidates….
– MSNBC (Oct. 2022): Democrats boosting far-right Republicans could backfire……
– The Guardian (Oct. 2022): Democratic strategists have spent millions of dollars to aid extremists, on the theory they’ll be easier to defeat in the general election…..
– Washington Post (Sept. 2022): Democrats have spent nearly $19 million across eight states in primaries this year amplifying far-right Republican candidates who have questioned or denied the validity of the 2020 election…..
– OpenSecrets (July 2022): Political groups and nonprofits aligned with the Democratic Party have spent nearly $44 million on advertising campaigns across five states’ Republican primaries to boost the profile of far-right candidates in California, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Maryland.
Babycakes. The Democrats spent $53,000 on one race to defeat Peter Meijer, an incumbent Republican in Michigan, in order to promote John Gibbs, a Trump promoted candidate. The other b.s. (19 million! 50 million!) you are reading on the internet or hearing on “new” channels is incorrect. Gibbs has a 31% chance of winning. Both parties have spent billions on their candidates, but Republicans keep pushing the Gibbs lie. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/3585361-meijer-republican-who-impeached-trump-defeated-in-primary/
That’s how we got Biden, who’s in worse mental shape than the concussed football player from Georgia, but a little better off than the Senate candidate from Penn. Sad state of affairs.
Been getting bombarded with texts from both sides. I just delete them.
Cons will be cons.
Yeah, and the DNC is so squeaky clean….
@1225/VOR: I wonder what it’s like being your friend.
Friend – “Hey man, I have a bad form of cancer.”
VOR – “Yeah well heart disease is pretty bad too”
Unfortunately for you, you’re on a list. Just hit delete and move on. Junk texts and emails are happening everywhere, not just in elections.
I never click on those political/vote text messages. I just type in STOP and send it through.
I used to get a lot of these types of texts as well. Typing in STOP and returning the text has worked very well for me.
Most liberals like Salud and Gavin are frauds so what do you expect.
SBLOCAL – like Trump University?
What’s false is it’s telling this person their ballot was not received when it already was, so playing into the election denying BS.
