which targeted swing states during the election.

Their experience is they are happy to receive a hand-written postcard and more likely to vote. They have data from earlier elections that supports their theory.

I meet regularly with a GA resident who cheered my effors (as did several AZ DU members who hoped they would get one of my postcards).

I think the handwritten outweighs the out-of-state. But you can get a local postmark if you want by (1) sending the to a local resident to mail them for you. It's also pretty routine to mail at least individual items to the postmaster in a particular town and have them postmark them there. (Valentine, NE near wher I grew up - gets a lot of February requests for postmarks.) I don't know how they would respond to a bulk request.
