Santa Monica’s only 8-square-miles big, but since moving here, I’ve gotten way more political mailers than I ever did as a City of LA resident.
Last night, I took a pic of all the city-related mailers that had arrived thus far. The top row’s all about Measure T. The left half of the middle row’s about Measure AA; the right half’s about the city council. The bottom row’s comprised of mailers that’re about multiple issues and candidates.
Today, I got three more mailers about Measure T, and one more about Measure AA.
How do the mailings in the City of LA compare to my mailbox stuffers this year?

i’ve gotten a total of 6.

Yeah I got a whole bunch too. I don’t like Prop T as you know, but I felt the majority of those No on T things didn’t really make a strong case.

I’m up to 12 so far — 5 for prop J, 3 for prop Q and 4 that are “ballot guides” with multiple issues.

I lost count, but guess its between 10-15. Didn’t bother reading any of them to find out which prop they’re about.

It seems we in Santa Monica are getting considerably more mailings. Almost all the ones I got had to do with local stuff! The amt of $ per person spent by the No on T people alone must’ve been really considerable –
