NM GOP Mailer: We will tell your neighbours if you won't vote against Democrats.

[Joe Republic]

Why would anybody care what their neighbors think?  Plus, this is so obviously an empty threat, anybody would just laugh before throwing it in the trash.

[Joe Republic]

I don't oppose this. Voting is a civic duty, and people who don't perform it deserve public opprobrium. Obviously, how they vote is their choice and theirs alone.

Describe the public opprobrium you anticipate.

Is it, though? Remember this?

Sure, it's comically Orwellian, but if I received a similar mailer for my neighborhood, I literally wouldn't recognize a single name on it.  I guarantee my neighbors wouldn't recognize mine.  Thus, I wouldn't care.
