It was a quiet week of social distancing and states shutting down. Joe Biden continues to campaign with his usual energy, while Bernie Sanders has fizzled out.

Week 44: March 15-March 21, 2020
With Tulsi dropping out, the field has coalesced to just 2 candidates, and at a spry 73, Donald Trump is our youngest option. It feels like all the excitement has left this primary and we’re just left exhausted.
Week 43: March 8-March 14, 2020
With how few emails I’m getting, these weekly recaps are going to be much shorter. There’s no point highlighting an email I’ve already highlighted, so I’ll just be focusing more on the overall trends. With that being said, I’m working on new merch! Elizabeth Warren, Joe Biden, and Bernie Sanders will all get designs.
Week 42: March 1-March 7, 2020
We lost 4 candidates this week, and my inbox is finally showing it. After Pete Buttigieg dropped on Sunday, the emails started to collapse. Amy Klobuchar took another chunk out of my email with her suspension, and then Mike Bloomberg, who never emailed much, pulled out completely. Finally, Elizabeth Warren wrapped up her campaign, and my inbox has been under 20 emails a day without them.
Week 41: February 23-February 29, 2020
This past week has had a debate, an election, and an FEC deadline, and Pete Buttigieg still topped the email charts. Despite all of these events, the email peak is one of its lowest ever, and we lost another candidate in Tom Steyer.
Week 40: February 16-February 22, 2020
This past week had both a debate and an election, and one of these events garnered more emails than the other. Overall, email volumes have dropped, and I suspect my worst days are behind me. Even FEC deadlines can’t be THAT bad anymore, as they’re coming too frequently now for the campaigns to keep thinking the sky is falling.
I hope.
Week 39: February 9-February 15, 2020
Over this past week, three candidates dropped, more people got to vote, and the amount of emails I’ve been getting took a serious nose-dive. Everyone wants money, but only Joe Biden doesn’t seem to know how much he has.
Week 38: February 2-February 8, 2020
The Iowa Caucus was on Monday, and the eighth Democratic debate was on Friday, and in-between was a whole lot of confusion. Every candidate was trying to convince me to give them my money, and Deval Patrick insisted he had nothing to do with Iowa.
Week 37: January 26-February 1, 2020
The final week of January was one long plea for money, though no candidate managed to upset me quite like Joe Biden this week.
Week 36: January 19-January 25, 2020
Over the past week, candidates celebrated Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Tulsi Gabbard sued Hillary Clinton, and I get introspective about humiliation.
