A fairly cheap and easy way to have a direct impact.

1) Identify, and gather the names of their residential neighbors.
The people who live near their home, in-state.

2) Get a smallish group (10-30 people) to meet up write short cogent complaint messages about financial misdeeds (voted for), etc.
A different message from each sender.

3) Send each neighbor a couple of personalized postcards; expressing disgust in their neighbors political behavior.

  • Do not criticize wife's, children, "husband's" etc. This will give them ammo to villanize the message.

Let the formerly friendly waves, shift to withering eye-contact avoidance.
Let their wife's and children talk about it.

Shame from their neighbors.

not exactly easy

Ease is relative.
It's trivial compared to getting a new candidate elected.

It's easier than convincing 200 people to vote (and delivering 200 votes).

true, and voting just says you're ok with getting fucked in the ass
