Political Spam

Galen Hancock writes "Now Califonia Democrats are sending out UBE in an effort to get votes. It's a classic case of spam: "targeting", opt-out, and even a rationale: It's political, not commercial. Wonder how many people from out of state will be told who to vote for the California Assembly?" They claim that this isn't spam because they aren't selling anything. I beg to differ. If I get unsolicited email from any candidate, I will refuse to vote for them.
