Slack screen layout and menu design differs from platform to platform. Postcards to Voters is unable to provide adequate support to answer platform-specific questions. If you are having trouble with Slack, please use Abby the Address Bot via email (send an email to Request@AbbyAddresses.org and be sure you do so from the same email address you used for approval) or email us here at the Help Desk for addresses (be sure to let us know how many you want remembering they must be in the mail within 3 days of receiving them).
Thank you for writing with us!
