> When it seems like there is a real person behind it, I respond and tell them if they keep sending me messages I’m going to vote for their opponent out of pure spite.

I used a similar tactic against a city council candidate that was spamming me.

I called the number that was sending the texts and told them if I received one more text about supporting their candidate in the primary, I would run against them myself in the next election and make my entire candidacy about their spam texts.

That was the last text I received from that candidate.
