Six calls in less than three hours, on a Sunday, with no message and no meaningful CID. I called the number back from a "burner." Without identifying the company, the recording talks about engaging me in "a conversation about current events." Because my opinion is "very important." Where does the line lie between political calls (which are, regrettably, permitted) and random surveys (which, presumably, are not)?
Turns out this is political harassment masked as a survey. The eighth, and mercifully last, unanswered call from that number yesterday, Monday, was a young man -- he didn't actually sound like a recording, but these days, who can tell? -- touting the virtues of Democratic candidate Jamescita Peshlakai. Guess who's not getting my vote?
