One local letter carrier is seeing a big change in his mailbag, as all those political pamphlets have suddenly disappeared.
Mason City letter carrier Scott Heagel has a little bit more spring in his step this morning and that could be because his mailbag is a bit lighter. What’s missing is also those political ads.
Heagel said “Some people were getting almost 4-5 ads a day to their house, and it did make some of the loops a little bit heavier.”
Though political ads pile up each election season, this time around seemed even more extreme
Heagel said “Since the election was going to be so close the Democrats also flooded the mail with their ads and it was, I’d have to say almost double what it was last time.”
While postal workers bags are a little lighter today, our mailboxes are a also a little more empty.”
