Just received a call from this number. When I answered, there was no response. I said, "Hello" again, rather loudly. still no answer. I said, "If you call someone, you should at least have the common courtesy to respond when I answer." At this point they hung up.
CFPP Research Group is the political action arm of Political Boost LLC (www.politicalboost.org). If you receive a call to do the survey, do it (or don't). As far as the sponsor's offer, take it (or don't). If you would like to be removed from the list, simply press 9 - or you can call us directly at 202-552-1228 and speak with Political Boost directly.
Our goal is to increase participation in the surveys to get and report the pulse of the nation. Not to annoy or anger anyone. If our system mistakenly calls you more than once, we anxiously await your notification and request to be removed from consideration. Below is all of our information should you need to reach us for any reason:

Our calls are not for "Sales", they are to get your opinion. Much like the days when you'd get a survey in the mail with a $1 bill inside, we are testing a new form of the concept by connecting survey takers with great promotional offers. These offers exist to anyone (whether you take the survey or not) directly with companies doing the promo offers. CFPP does not benefit from you redeeming a promo offer. However, we felt if we had something to sweeten our request for your opinion - we'd see better response rates to the survey requests - and it is working.
As I mention above, we are happy to discuss our project with anyone that would like to give us a call. And, the fact that you didn't get our direct number from 'Eric' is an issue I will take up with our promotional partner. Our contact information should never be denied for any reason.
