The phone rang, I got a POLL call just now

We have had several calls from Salt Lake City in the last few weeks. I looked at the caller ID, and answered. It was an automated poll on a state legislative race. Problem was, I'm not in the district (their mistake) they asked about. All I could do was answer 3: undecided.

I'm still hoping that I get a call on a Federal race. Since we have our home number on our election records and we voted in the primary, we just might get another one. :-)

1. I have not and will not be called because only those whom I've given my number has it.
So I've had no calls, no canvassers, no election material hung on my doorknob. That's exactly the way I like it because for me, my home is a place of refuge.

2. Can you believe I got one of those at work today? We have rollover
phones, so if the receptionist is engaged, the calls then rollover to the back offices, and I picked up and it was an anti-union recording. I should have listened to the whole thing, but as soon as I realized what it was, I hung up.
