Please realize that political calls do not fall under the DNC. What you need to do is tell them you do not want to receive their calls, and make sure you do a opt out with all the political parties. Then, if you receive calls, go that persons web site and under their contact us page, write them and tell them to place you on their internal dnc list and also there is a political do not call you can sign up for. I did and also tell them to use that list and give them the url for it. I have not gotten any calls for years now. Not even political survey's. So it does help to follow the steps.

The other thing that will help, if you have a cell phone, if it doesn't already have call blocking, there are free call blocking apps online you can get for some phones. If you have a land line, google call blocking devices. There are phones also available with call blocking but they do not hold as many numbers as devices do. Many of the devices run around 50.00 or less.
I get a call from them every day always a recording and from different numbers there is no way to stop it I can care less who is running in Illinois I live in Florida and I have a Florida telephone number what a bunch of dumb [***]!!!!
Political call: It really doesn't matter because my mind is made up. I won't vote for a guy who wants to lay off teachers, gut retirements, tax pensions, the reason for the closing of Illinois hospitals, makes $1 million a week/$52 Million a year and yet wants to lower the minimum wage, hides money in the Cayman Islands to avoid taxes, siphons millions of dollars out of companies while he laid off workers and outsourced 4,000 jobs to India, eliminates collective bargaining for private sector workers, moves Illinois to a Right to Work for less state. I am voting for Governor Pat Quinn
