This has been true for the 50 years I have been involved in politics. Back when I worked in the California legislature running campaigns, postcards would be used as a community organizing tool. Organizations that supported a candidate would be asked to get their members to commit to sending personally signed postcards for the candidate to at least 10 friends, because it was known that a postcard was 80% more likely to be read and not thrown away as compared with the typical political mailers that flood my mailbox these days and go straight into the blue barrel.
