Robocall Report (Chesapeake Primary)
Edited on Mon Feb-11-08 04:01 PM by Kurt_and_Hunter
In 48 hours I have received:

Huckabee Push Poll (nothing negative about McCain) from Machinists' Union
Robo McCain call... sleep inducing
Robo McCain call again... to wake me up from the first one, I guess
Robo Bill Clinton
Robo Hillary Clinton
Robo invitation to Bill Clinton Event tonight
Live Hillary campaign GOTV call (Caller ID said Hillary Clinton, which was kind of cool)

I am demographically Republican and/or gay. (Middle aged unmarried white man) No donation history or anything else to put me on either campaign's radar.

No Obama calls of any kind. So either Obama isn't pushing as hard, or his operation is so sophisticated he knows not to call me.

3. They may all be very sophisticated with targeting these things...
I get Republican mailings all the time, which would make sense demographically, and Dems seem to avoid me.

But this is the first meaningful Dem primary contest here since forever. I can't imagine what Iowa and New Hampshire are like, because I stopped answering the phone after one day of it.

4. I phone banked for Obama.
His operation is very sophisticated. We only called Democrats and undecideds/independents.

No Obama calls of any kind. So either Obama isn't pushing as hard, or his operation is so sophisticated he knows not to call me.


Peace:thumbsup:
