Just received recorded call from 401-280-1114 (Portable Insights) inviting me to submit email for inclusion in focus group paying $125.00. Owner of Portable Insights is former owner of firm described at this link http://criminalpollsters.blogspot.com/2008/08/opinion-factor.html He is a convicted felon. Confirmed with searches at http://courtconnect.courts.ri.gov/pls/ri_adult/ck_public_qry_main.cp_main_idx
I got this. I believe it is a "push poll" designed to swing the MA special election for replacing
John Kerry. This is very shady and highly unethical. Which candidate were they slamming/supporting?

I tried to check the myideascount site but it has been taken down now that polls have closed.
Please report this to media or attorney general if you were able to take the "survey".
