If you are up for writing postcards at the virtual party, read on! The starting pistol for letter writing goes off at 8 pm Eastern. If you send me photos of postcards you are writing, I’ll post them in this thread.
If not, let’s make this a music thread, too, so we can help entertain the postcard writers!
Songs that reference states? Patriotic songs? Songs about democracy? Any songs at all!
From Lizzy (Mousebumples) from Wisconsin
Postcards are a great way to encourage and get our Voters to the polls.
From the Postcards to Voters website FAQ:
Q – Is there any evidence to indicate mail-based campaigns make a real difference at the ballot box?
A – Yes! Political scientists have conducted dozens of experiments on the effect of direct mail and find that, on average, mailers increase turnout when they use “messages that emphasize civic duty or the importance of making one’s voice heard” (Gerber and Green 2015, pg. 58). Additional evidence also shows that making the interaction feel personalized, rather than just a blanket message from an organization, is key to increasing the effectiveness of voter outreach.
When Dems turn out, we win!
If you’re already an approved Postcards to Voters writer or you are writing with Postcard Patriots, you’re all set to get addresses to write. If not, please go to http://postcardpatriots.com/ to request addresses.
You’ll need postcards (which may include cardstock that you’ve cut down), postcard stamps (or first-class in a pinch), pens and/or markers, and postcard snacks. Don’t forget snacks, drinks, and whatever gets you in the postcarding groove.
Thank you for being a postcard writer!
Oh, and totally open thread.
Join one of the Balloon Juice Postcarding Parties – the one tonight and a second one on Tuesday. Posts will go up at 7:45!! All times Eastern.

I kinda doubt anyone here wants my music suggestions, since I’ve had Taylor’s new album playing on a loop since Thursday night. BUT IT’S SO FUCKING GOOD.
I can’t do postcards because I can’t get to the post office, but kudos to all of you doing so!
Mousebumples
In the process of putting down my kiddos for bedtime, but I’ll be back to get my postcarding on!
I usually postcard while watching TV/movies, but music could work too. (I’ll be watching basketball tonight!)
With Obama coming to Wisconsin next weekend for GOTV, I can’t help but think of… Yes, We Can.
But I’m an optimist.
Let’s do this!
WaterGirl
@Alison Rose: Taylor as in Taylor Swift?
Mousebumples
@Alison Rose: Is that a “can’t mail” or “can’t get supplies” problem?
If it’s the latter, you can order prestamped postcards from USPS to have shipped to you. May not arrive soon enough to use for election day, but could be helpful for runoffs. (*cough* Georgia *cough*)
No pressure to anyone who doesn’t have an interest in this brand of GOTV. But if you have obstacles, i like trying to brainstorm solutions. 😊
@WaterGirl: Yup. I’ve heard her new album dropped. Haven’t heard it yet, but her music is usually pretty solid to great, in my opinion. (Queen is the best band ever, FTR)
Joy in FL
I will be here at the starting time. Looking forward to it.
WaterGirl
This song takes me to my happy place.
Susanna Hoffs Matthew Sweet Different Drum
I love their voices together, love the song, and love the way they interact while performing.
Mousebumples
7mo old is down. 3 year old is trying to negotiate. 😅 I might be a bit late for the starting gun, but I swear I’ll be back.
Emily B.
13 cards more cards to write for Pat Ryan in NY. I’m in!
CaseyL
I’ve sent out a few batches already, but may be able to make the Tuesday party – problem is, I need to be able to print off the postcards, which I can only do at work because I don’t own a printer. I’ll see if I can get that done Monday, and if so, will ask Maze Dancer for more addresses!
JanieM
Resistance Revival Chorus, All You Fascists Bound to Lose
Alison Rose
@WaterGirl: Yes, her 10th album came out Thursday night (well, in my time zone) with 13 tracks…and then at 3 am ET she dropped another surprise 7 tracks. Because she’s chaotic like that!
MazeDancer
Standing by to replenish addresses.
As WaterGirl said, hit the http://www.PostCardPatriots.com website. Or click on my nym.
Or special BJ Party trick – you can just email PostCardPatriots at the google mail place. Which is where the form goes when you hit “send” at the site.
And, remember, criminally, Elaine Luria of VA and Susan Wild of PA are tied with their dreadful opponents. We have addresses. PostCards could be their margin of Victory.
Alison Rose
@Mousebumples: I’m not able to leave my apartment due to disability. We do have an outgoing mail slot so I could give them to my Mom to send when she stops by to bring my mail to me, except the slot is tiny and idiots in my building often stuff their junk mail in it because they suck.
MazeDancer
@CaseyL: You got it!
WaterGirl
@Emily B.: Go you! Let us know when you finish those, and send me a picture of one so I can post it in the comments.
WaterGirl
@CaseyL: I guess music is your job tonight then. :-)
la caterina
Hey, y’all! I’m writing postcards to folks in Wiley Nickel’s district in NC. Keep the songs coming!
CaseyL
@MazeDancer: Excellent!
@WaterGirl: Believe me, you do not want me in charge of music. I’ve paid just enough attention to the new stuff to have heard a couple songs by Adele and Taylor, and to know who Billie Eilish is. I am very much an Oldie Goldies girl!
WaterGirl
@JanieM: I have never seen that before. The lyrics are too repetitive for my taste, but I love all the images, and I especially loved the woman with “I’m not your incubator” written in marker on her bare midriff.
kalakal
IMHO The most uplifting piece of music ever and this is a fun way of doing it, taking the Ode to Joy to the street
https://youtu.be/kbJcQYVtZMo
Joy in FL
I’m not fast at writing the postcards, but I’m here and happy to be doing this.
WaterGirl
@CaseyL: Oldies are acceptable! I would certainly appreciate them, and I bet I’m not the only one.
WaterGirl
@Joy in FL: Who are you writing for now?
Scout211
I am here to cheer all you postcard writers on. Well done, everyone!
On the music side of this thread, The Beatles are releasing a remastered version of Revolver on October 28th. I had the vinyl and the CD version. It was my favorite. Link
The songwriting work tape of Yellow Submarine is . . . something.
Kristine
I’m here–a little late but the day turned out to be unusually hectic for a Saturday. Settling down to write postcards now. Gaby, my dog with canine cognitive dysfunction, has been pacing/eating/drinking water for the last half hour or so. It’s become an evening thing, though sometimes her clock shifts. Problem is, I am never quite sure if it’s all in her little brain or if her stomach is upset or she has to go to the bathroom. It’s been a challenge.
WaterGirl
@kalakal: I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since I first saw that!
MazeDancer
Here’s a superb oldie, with a groove, that Barack Obama once sang:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COiIC3A0ROM
Joy in FL
@WaterGirl: I stayed with Ohio’s Supreme Court, so I don’t get messages scrambled in my head and scrambled on the postcards.
WaterGirl
@kalakal: That was great! Joy all the faces, and I love all the little kids pretending to direct.
prostratedragon
My heart is inciting: “Eisbärentanz,” Wolgemut. The group has an 18-tune playlist.
kalakal
@WaterGirl: It’s great isn’t it? That’s a lot of people who are going to love that music forever
la caterina
Need moar songs, please;
Mousebumples
@Alison Rose: No pressure to you or anyone else. You know what works best for you. And I appreciate having a cheering section as we get these done!
@Joy in FL: it’s not a race! And just think of every postcard as one more vote for our side. We’ll vote the maniacs out.
And I’m here, writing and cheering on my Bucks, who have opened a 16-4 lead over the Rockets.
WaterGirl
@Scout211: I had no idea that was coming out! Good songs on Revolver.
Somehow that made me think of my favorite cover of Blackbird.
sung by Curt on Glee
WaterGirl
@Kristine: Oh, that is hard. I’m sorry.
What postcards are you writing?
WaterGirl
@Joy in FL: Yeah, you don’t want to send “Vote for Beto!” to someone in Ohio. :-)
WaterGirl
I am playing all the music people link to, including the ones I link. I’m sitting on the screened-in porch so I’m sure that my neighbors are marveling at my eclectic taste in music.

@la caterina:
Need inspiration?
Ain’t No Mountain High Enough.
WaterGirl
@kalakal: I couldn’t believe how many people knew the words and could sing along!
la caterina
@Scout211: good one!
WaterGirl
@kalakal: Yeah, the looks on faces as people caught on to what was happening… just wonderful.
I am wondering if we want to do an audio zoom for Tuesday’s postcard writing party – those of us who aren’t writing could regale the writers with interesting conversation (or not) and they could chime in whenever they wanted.
Great idea? Terrible idea?
Kristine
@WaterGirl: Postcards To Voters–Georgia Senator and Governor. I keep checking Mousebumples’ cards for tips.
WaterGirl
@Kristine: I know! I think I would be copying hers verbatim! :-)
WaterGirl
Here’s a postcard sent in by Gina.
NotMax
Relinking to a patriotic piece, eightfold.
Joy in FL
@Mousebumples: Exactly : ) I know that a lot of people doing what they can, can accomplish great things. I’m happy to be part of that.
CarolPW
@kalakal: It makes me cry for joy every time – and think this world isn’t entirely in the shitter if people can do that.
Joy in FL
@WaterGirl: Yes, I found out when I did my first batch several days ago that if I write more than about 5 at a time, I make mistakes even when I am highly focused. And that makes me know that I am wise to stick with the same postcard campaign if I have that choice.
Cameron
For an inspirational, forward-looking song, Tomorrow Belongs To Me works…depending on the type of inspiration one is seeking, of course.
Mousebumples
@Kristine: glad to help out! #teamwork
@WaterGirl: Nice work, Gina! I’m always amazed at how much people can fit into that postcard space. 👏👏
My postcarding is running slow tonight since i apparently tweaked my wrist playing with the kiddos today. I’ll brace it tonight/tomorrow, but my plans to do multiple sets of postcards tonight may be over-ambitious.
I’m encouraged by early Georgia voting, so I’m doing another set for SENATOR Warnock (I love being able to write SENATOR before his name) and Stacey.
JanieM
Songs:
Pack up Your Sorrows, Richard and Mimi Farina
Will the Circle be Unbroken, Gillian Welch et al.

Joy in FL
@WaterGirl: I love the idea, but I know that I cannot listen to something with words and also write a prescribed message. So an after-party would be fun, but while writing, I would just turn the sound off if we did an audio party. I would be there because I would not want to miss a BJ thing : )
kalakal
@WaterGirl: I think that’s a lovely idea. I won’t get back from work till 9 but it would be great if I could lend some encouragement then.
H.E.Wolf
Hooray for all the postcard writers! Here’s a classic rock oldie with a surprise leading singer….

@WaterGirl: Great postcard from Gina! I love the postcards you posted from Mousebumples, too. All of them are inspirational — I’ve been trying to add more color to mine.
I was out all day and came in this evening and saw there was a party going on — what fun! Thanks for the music. I’m doing a batch this evening against the abortion amendment in Kentucky.

WaterGirl
@Joy in FL:
You are so right about that! Anyone would have that problem. Seemed like it might be a good idea, but nope.
WaterGirl
@kalakal: Maybe the “after party” with conversation AFTER the postcard writing is a better idea.

This is great. Thanks for participating, everyone.

@H.E.Wolf: You are one of the jackals whose comments encouraged me to write postcards this election. On my computer desktop, I have a screenshot of a comment you made on July 3: “Get off your petunias and get moving!”
You never know what good effect you may have; sometimes you get to find out a small part of it : )
WaterGirl
@H.E.Wolf: I can’t hear that song without seeing Whoopi singing that in the movie. I love that scene.
WaterGirl
@dkinPa:
That’s awesome.
kalakal
@WaterGirl: Yes, I can see that conversation would be distracting
WaterGirl
Other postcards from Mousebumples in case folks missed the earlier thread.
JanieM
Sorry, doubled one of my links in my last comment.
Discover America
la caterina
@WaterGirl: I would love an audio zoom!
Joy in FL
@Another Scott: I love those tunes. Thank you for sharing them.
prostratedragon
@WaterGirl: Those are nice! I’ve been finding writing much rather painful, but I’ve sent out a couple of batches of that PTV campaign without the extra messages (which are good if you can), using these colorable cards. I’m comfortable using brush pens to color them.
Mousebumples
@WaterGirl: pre-party, after party, discussion in between for non writing times (eg adding stamps, taking a snack break, etc.).
I could potentially do a Zoom on Tuesday, but I don’t need to of others aren’t interested. From work, I’m pretty good at tuning out and focusing when I need to, but not everyone has had to put that into effect due to job stressors.
PaulB
And now for something completely different, a lighthearted novelty song: I’ve No More F***s To Give.
For something a little more tame, but just as lighthearted: Tommy Makem’s version of Waltzing With Bears.
A little more contemporary, but a song that brought tears to my eyes when I first heard it: Dear Winter, by AJR.
H.E.Wolf
Peter, Paul & Mary: “If I Had My Way” – one of the little kids I babysat used to request this track. Maybe kiddo grew up to be an activist, who knows? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8MtVjSGRmY

@Joy in FL: Oh, that’s a hoot! Thank you so much. Somewhere, my high school gym teacher (who said that to us alllll the time) is wondering why her ears feel like they’re burning. :-)

Battle Hymn of the Republic — I’m sure I got this right here, from Adam Silverman one Memorial Day or other.
Also, this made me cry for half of election night two years ago, partly out of worry about what was going to happen next. I wrote a post about it at Obsidian Wings and we tried to identify all the scenes. Whatever anyone might think of the Lincoln Project at this point, this was a very moving minute of music and imagery on that particular occasion.
Also, thanks to all you postcard writers!
MazeDancer
More groove. Though decades apart, not dissimilar to my first post, just faster.
To the best of my knowledge, Barack Obama did not sing this one, at least not publicly:

Mozart violin and piano instrumental music. First piece is very sprightly.

Slow cello music, if Mozart is too manic.

MazeDancer
@H.E.Wolf: That “lead singer” could sing anything.
WaterGirl
@prostratedragon: Those colorable cards look fun!
I really hope Rev. Warnock can win outright, but if he doesn’t and there’s a runoff, those might be something to keep in mind.

Mousebumples
@MazeDancer: question for you – what’s your “last day to mail” for your addresses?
Any thoughts on keeping a handful of races active longer, and asking people to write for candidates in their state or an adjacent state only? If mail doesn’t need to travel cross-county, it could give more time to get postcards out. 😊
kalakal
A song that brings back a lot of memories for me of going home. It also features the most wonderful singing by Annie Haslam.

@H.E.Wolf: I had never heard that song before. Waiting for it to heat up now!
edit: and it did!

@MazeDancer: ”@H.E.Wolf: That “lead singer” could sing anything.”
Damn straight she could! Here’s her onstage appearance, playing piano in spite of her arthritis, in honor of Carole King.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diwF1-xJwZM
(One of the reviewers remarked, “No one can chuck a fur like Aretha.”)
WaterGirl
@Mousebumples: Maybe we could try another music thread for Tuesday AND a zoom, so people could tune in to whichever worked for them. And you’re right, stamping is different than writing words.
Scout211

Slow-moving folk spiritual, covered by the late Eva Cassidy: “People, Get Ready”. Might be too church-y for some tastes. (I tune that part out, and focus on the non-religious sense of “have faith”.)

WaterGirl
@Scout211: I have now listened to my first Taylor Swift song.
I will now confess that until this very moment, I had conflated Taylor Swift and Brittany Spears.
WaterGirl
@kalakal: Love Bob Marley, but I haven’t listened in ages.
WaterGirl
Am I the only person who – if forced to watch an ad before I can watch the video – make a mental note of what the ad is and vow that I will NEVER purchase that product?
*My one exception is for the political ads for the good guys. It still annoys me, but it’s different than a commercial product.
kalakal
@WaterGirl: Nope, you’re not alone, the offending product is now dead to me
Kristine
@WaterGirl:
Nope. Especially when they run on apps and freeze/crash the app.
WaterGirl
I guess if I ask you guys to send me postcards by email, I should check my email! Who knew?
These are from Kristine!
I like the peaches!
Mousebumples
@WaterGirl: open the videos in an ad-blocking browser window (eg Brave). But, yes, I also get annoyed by that.
I’m done postcarding for tonight – got 10 going to Georgia. 😊 I can hang out in the thread and still chat though. My hand/wrist just needs a break.
WaterGirl
@Mousebumples: My ad blockers used to block ads. Then suddenly they didn’t, and Safari keeps you from using Brave now, and others. Sigh.
WaterGirl
Kristine
@WaterGirl: If I need to chuck that one b/c of the typo and the peach, I can. I have a lot of cards and another pack on order.
dww44
@WaterGirl: I’ve gone beyond doing that. I just don’t bother to watch any of it. I just exit. It’s an annoyance to watch stuff on my phone anyways. Another thing we lost with print media….silent, altogether ignorable ads.
Mousebumples
@WaterGirl: great postcards, Kristine! Love the 🍑 artwork.
And can’t wait to see what else you find in your email. 👏👏👏
WaterGirl
@kalakal: Oh, good!
Mousebumples
@Kristine: I think you’re fine. The messaging is clear – and i vote to use your additional supplies for postcards to more voters!
WaterGirl
@Kristine: If by “typo” you mean that you had to insert “you”, I don’t think that’s a problem. That just makes you human.
What say you, other postcard writers?
WaterGirl
@dww44: I do that with websites that want to make me turn off my ad blocker to read their article. I just say “fuck you” and close the window.
Kristine
@Mousebumples: Thanks–you really made it easier for this first-timer.
WaterGirl
It’s been 90 minutes, is everybody mostly done with postcard writing for the evening?
It’s been fun cheering you guys on with music and conversation.

@WaterGirl: Those cards are great, Kristine.
Kristine
I’m going to keep plugging. I think I asked for too many cards for the first time–I asked for 50. Gaby finally settled down for the evening, so I can work.
Next time, I will ask for 5-10 at a time.

Big thanks to Mousebumples for the great idea to have a postcard writing party!
Mousebumples
@Kristine: the first few are the hardest. And figuring out what to do with the instructions from the next batch, when I go to a new campaign, too. If you’re on Twitter there’s a lot of other postcard writers who post theirs that I’ve taken ideas from. Glad I could help! 💗
Gretchen
@WaterGirl: Ryan flipped a seat in a special election after the Dobbs decision and is now running for a full term. Pro choice is on his postcards.
Mousebumples
@Kristine: you can do it! But, yes, i find I’d rather do 5-10 at a time, and then ask Abby (the Address Bot) for more, if I still have the energy for more.
Just think – those 50 postcards could keep Senator Warnock out of the recall zone. 🤞🤞🤞

@Regine Touchon: Great work! If we count previous election cycles, I’m over 400 postcards in. 55th postcard for November 8th midterm election was finished tonight, though.
It adds up, and our collective action can make a big difference!

Retired mail person here… you or your mother can request an “orange order envelope” from the carrier and use that to get postal supplies like stamps prepaid postcards etc delivered to your address – at least you could a couple yrs ago
