I was polled last night. They called my cell phone from Texas.

First question was whether I was likely to vote in Nov. Then came some questions about the ACA, who I would vote for for president, am I a liberal conservative etc.

Then the rest of the political questions were about a local State Senate race here in CA.

They made some statements and asked if knowing what they stated would I be more likely, some what likely, some what less likely or less likely to vote for Hannah Beth Jackson. (the Dem)

Then some more statements and asked if knowing what they stated would I be more likely, some what likely, some what less likely or less likely to vote for Mike Stoker. (the Repub)

One of the statements about Hannah Beth Jackson was that she is known as tax'in Jackson.

The statements about Mike Stoker were that he was a business man, a person who contributes to improving his community etc.

Then they asked my party affiliation, age, gender, ethnicity.

I guessed it was a Repub push poll.
