A campaign asked a funeral home for its mourners’ mailing list

Politics category photographPolitics

A funeral director told our family that a campaign had requested the mailing list from a former mayor’s service. The campaign said attendees were civically engaged and might appreciate memorial-event updates. The director refused. Names gathered for condolences should not become prospective donors or voters. The family asked the campaign to confirm it received no copy from another source.

The funeral home’s refusal prevented the main harm.

The campaign may have envisioned a commemorative notice rather than fundraising.
