The Obama campaign's cat meme mailer.

The Obama campaign is using a mailer modeled after online cat memes as part of their final get out the vote push in the crucial battleground state of Ohio. On the mailer, there is a picture of a cat peeking out from behind a laptop decorated with Ohio-themed Obama campaign stickers highlighting the push to get people to vote early.

"STOP LOOKING AT CATS ONLINE AND GO VOTE," text on the flyer says.

A user on the social news site Reddit with the handle MollyBloom11 posted a picture of the mailer on the site last night. They were clearly impressed with the campaign's understanding of internet culture.

"The Obama campaign sent me this today...They know their audience," MollyBloom11 wrote.

The Obama campaign confirmed the mailer was real and has been used in Ohio. They were not immediately sure whether similar imaging has been used for online ads or in other states.

President Barack Obama didn't give Rep. Charlie Rangel an endorsement in today's election, but that didn't stop supporters of the longtime congressman's re-election bid from peppering Harlem with flyers featuring a huge picture of the president embracing Mr. Rangel as voters headed to the polls. The flyer describes Mr. Rangel as "a key leader in passing Obama's healthcare law."

Throughout this campaign, Mr. Rangel has both publicly and privately expressed a desire to earn the president's endorsement. However, though the president has endorsed other congressional candidates, the White House has repeatedly declined to weigh in on Mr. Rangel's race. In 2008, Mr. Rangel endorsed President Obama's opponent in the Democratic presidential primary, Hillary Clinton. Two years later, as Mr. Rangel was about to be censured for ethics violations by the House, President Obama gave an interview in which he described the ethical flap as "very troubling" and said he hoped Mr. Rangel would choose to "end his career with dignity."

Mr. Rangel's supporters in his home political club, the Martin Luther King Jr. Democrats also distributed another election day flyer featuring smaller pictures of Mr. Rangel with President Obama and with President Clinton as well as other leaders. President Clinton taped a birthday message for Mr. Rangel earlier this month, but he also hasn't given any official endorsement in the race.

Mr. Rangel isn't the only candidate in the race for whom flyers have been issued implying the support of Presidents Obama and Clinton. Campaign For Our Future, a super PAC that's supporting Mr. Rangel's rival, Clyde Williams, sent out mailers that said, "Barack Obama isn’t supporting Charlie Rangel. Why should we?,” but they also disseminated Spanish-language mailers that said "Obama and Clinton support Clyde." Another one of Mr. Rangel's opponents, Adriano Espaillat, has also used President Obama's image on his flyers.

The White House press office referred our questions about Mr. Rangel's flyer to President Obama's re-election campaign. As of this writing, the Obama campaign has not responded to multiple requests for a comment on this story.

Adriano Espaillat

A tipster sent The Politicker this photo of a campaign billboard for state senator and congressional hopeful Adriano Espaillat that features his face looming large over the University Heights Bridge on West 207th in Inwood.

We also obtained a bilingual mailer volunteers for Mr. Espaillat have been distributing in Washington Heights. Interestingly, Mr. Espaillat's mailers portray his candidacy as a battle against "Tea Party Republicans," the same strategy employed by  his main opponent in the 13th district race, incumbent Congressman Charlie Rangel.

"Adriano Espaillat, bringing back the energy we need to fight Tea Party Republicans!" the mailer says. 

Last month, Mr. Rangel sent out mailers of his own claiming "right-wing Tea Partiers from Texas" are trying to have him removed after over four decades in office. Mr. Rangel's claim was based on the Campaign for Primary Accountability, a Houston-based PAC that targets incumbents and is supporting Mr. Espaillat. The CPA has supported both Democrats and Republicans who are running against longtime incumbents. Though the PAC’s activities have been bipartisan, it has several prominent conservative donors.

Mr. Espaillat's mailer also characterizes him as an advocate for affordable housing, healthcare and the New York DREAM Act. It also vows he will "take on the Big Banks" and, somewhat grandiosely, promises he will "end the war in Afghanistan."
