Guess what guys. When Congress was crafting the DNC registry, they did make an exception. Surprise surprise... It does not apply to political solicitation. They're just too important to play by the rules they impose on the dumb masses.
334-590-4284 wireless number called my home phone 3x within 10 minutes, today, 3/12/13 at 6:31PM & 6:35PM & 6:39PM. I did not answer the 1st 2 times & they did not leave a message. (But our answering machine is flukey / half dead, so might be tech issue on our machine's part). The 3rd time I answered.
Robo political call against Clay Scofield who voted FOR an Alabama education voucher bill. (And yes, we live in Alabama).
As previously mentioned by another poster, political calls are exempt from the DNC registry / rules, as there are a few other exceptions as well (donation / not for profit solicitors & I think also surveys).
But even if it was against the rules, I have found that no matter how much you report the offenders (of which my previous biggest offender was AT&T !!), either nothing is done or the slap on the wrist is so small, it has no effect.
Just another reason to get rid of our home telephone.
Political call asking us to call our Representative and have him vote against a State bill that is coming up. The "do not call list" is AWESOME, but doesn't pertain to politicians. I wish they would leave me ALONE!!
Same number last week was for an insurance police available available for retired state employees. Now..........today the message is from the Alabama Education Association.
