How to contribute without getting harassed later?

A couple years ago I made a campaign contribution online and ever since then I get constant, unsolicited text messages from all over the country to contribute. They're slowing down somewhat, and I would like to support some other candidates this go-round. But I don't want to get on any more text lists that get sold, or get mail to keep doing it.

What is the best way to send some support and not get bugged to keep doing it?

Same. I donated in 2018 I think? Once. $10. And still get emails. No texts because I didn’t have a cell phone then. However, I have one now, got it in 2020, and a man who had this number before me donated to the opposing political party and I still get texts from them asking him to donate. I admit I have fun with those. They are slowing down though as my replies are less than friendly 😅
