Went to the post office to buy a few postcard stamps and they said they were nearly all out. People had been buying them by the roll to send out Get Out The Vote cards. “One lady bought a thousand! I’ve never seen someone buy so many stamps.” said our postmistress.

Our little state’s electoral votes may not matter much in the grand scheme of the general election, but we’re all doing our part.

    @jessamyn@glammr.us We’ve had postcard stamp shortages here in TN too… The group I’ve been working with has mailed nearly 6,500 postcards

    @jessamyn@glammr.us Sarah wrote hundreds of post cards to people in PA. I had to break into our postcard stamp stash to cover a few.

  • @jessamyn@glammr.us Yep. When I dropped off our 400 postcards, the post office lady said there are so many people dropping off postcards this year compared to previous years. Hopefully, that is a good sign for Dem. because we are more organized than Rep.

    @jessamyn@glammr.us Speaking as someone in a swing state, I’ve gotten a few of those. I told my husband not to throw them away with the other political ads because if someone took the time to write out a message to me, I will respect them and read it. 👍

  • @jessamyn@glammr.us We bought our stamps a few weeks ago. I did 200 postcards for Georgia and spousal unit did 500 for Kansas! Mailed them yesterday. Fingers crossed they will reach their destinations on time.

  • @jessamyn@glammr.us I live just outside of Chicago and our Post Office didn’t have any stamps. I was told “No one sends postcards anymore”.

    Had drive another 20 minutes to another post office to buy stamps.

    We will not be deterred!
