Campaigners against junk e-mail, or spam, are pressing for a ban on its use
for political advertising after last week鈥檚 elections in the US. Buddy MacKay,
the Democratic candidate for governor of Florida, launched a mass e-mail in an
attempt to bring out his vote.
MacKay lost to the Republican Jeb Bush. That doesn鈥檛 surprise John Mozena of
the Coalition Against Unsolicited Commercial E-mail. 鈥淚 would be surprised if
anyone who got this message would have been disposed to vote for Buddy MacKay,鈥�
he says.
