when this number came up on my caller id it also had 8012149297 where the name of the caller comes up. if a number i don't recognize comes up on the caller id i don't answer the phone, cannot be bothered with solicitation calls.
What a goober! My answering machine has the original, generic, out-of-the-box message -- clearly an answering machine. I got home to a single message -- from this number. A very perky female voice identified herself from "Call Research", asked if she could ask some questions, never took a breath and went on to ask if I was a registered voter. Of course since she was talking to the answering machine, no one answered her question. After a few seconds of silence she said "Hello?" "Hello?", then disconnected. Good spend of campaign contributions, not! ;-)
Caller Id was 360-339-5269 and said "Olympia, Washington". Picked up the phone and just listened. 15 seconds later & said hello & somebody said "Hi, my name is Sam Jenkins with Call Research and have a short political survey". I hung up.
