Ridiculous amount of political text messages from Democratic Party

How do I block political text messages from Democratic Party? It feels like I’m being harassed every single day. My number has been registered in the Do Not Call Registry for years and yet I’m still getting phone calls and text messages from telemarketers and political parties .

Getting unwanted text messages can certianly be frustrating, especially if its happening every day. Our goal is to help you in the best way possible.

Check out our blocking options through this link: https://www.verizon.com/support/block-numbers/.

FYI, replying with "STOP" to a text message can be an effective way to opt out of receiving automated texts from a legitimate business.

Political campaigns are a legal activity and at least used to be exempt from the Do Not Call rules. I suspect these texts are coming from some organization you participate in who has distributed your number to others. While "existing relationship" stuff is no longer supposed to be done, either many are unaware or else ignoring updated regulations. Contact whatever politically minded groups you work with/participate in and ask them to remove you from all 3rd party marketing. These texts could also have come in from other sources such as voter registration databases being shared to 3rd parties.

I’m getting a massive amount of texts from a party I do not even belong to. I report junk and delete every time but they just keep rolling.
