How are emails scraped from social media regulated by the FEC? This is not about paid email lists, it's about free targeted email addresses scrapped from social media. Paid email lists, as far as I know, are regulated by the FEC. Do you have to register with the election board and the FEC to do this?
Could you use scraped emails that you scraped for free to email people to donate to a political campaign, or phone a bank, or ask them to vote?
You could target college cities, college-educated professionals, LGBTQ, Gen Z, minorities, and women.
Could you set up a free Google sheet to email an advert 2–3 times a week requesting people vote for a progressive pro-middle class, pro-union, pro-universal healthcare candidate and abolish ICE, and for an amendment to the US Constitution to ban corporate political free speech protections and ban all corporate lobbying of US Congress?
Will this be enough to have a noticeable effect on primaries this year? Could this be used to promote progressive candidates in the primaries? Could this be used to promote candidates in the general elections for the US Senate this year?
Do you have to register all of this with the FEC and local election board?
Why do so many campaigns use phone banking?
