12:35 PM EST. OPI OPINION RESEARCH JUST CALLED MY UNLISTED PHONE AND ASKED FOR ME BY NAME. WENT THROUGH ALL THE CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENT AND MY LOCAL CONGRESS RACE...PLUS ASKED MY OPINION OF CORZINE.....ASKED HOW LIKELY I WAS TO VOTE, EDUCATION LEVEL, INCOME LEVEL, AND RACE.

Nice fellow. Friendly. Not apparently biased. Accent.

[huldah1776]

unlisted?

I’ve had several polling calls this last week. I’ve given them incorrect information each time.
I’m tired of polls, I’m tired of the media leading us by the nose with polls. I participate by voting.

[mick]

yes

[BGHater]

Cell or land line?

[mad_as_he$$]

Did you tell them your race was HUMAN?

[BGHater]

CORRECTION.

CELL PHONE OR LAND LINE?

[mick]

land line

Cool.

I was polled by Gallup the other day. Their pollster talked so fast I almost couldnt tell what they were saying. and they seemed to ask questions in circles.

I was nearly polled in a haybar once.

I was polled a month ago. They wanted to know if I drank. I said, “Not yet.”

We just don’t answer the phone.

You’re more polite than me. I’ve been polled about 3 or 4 times this cycle.
Hung up on them all. Screw ‘um.

I get about a weekly email from Polling Point, I usually go and complete the survey, it is the same survey every time. Guess they are using the same sample of voters, but not sure. Eventually I will have enough points for a t-shirt!!

[mick]

came in as “out of area”. no phone #

[crymeariver]

I’m taking a caller ID poll. Did the polling organization name show up on your caller ID or just a phone number?

[acw011]

Did you tell them your race was HUMAN?

That's great, I use that one all the time!

I've been getting alot of poly calls lately, mostly GOP making sure I'm going to vote - already did thanks, please update your systems.

I think I've been on a "non-biased" or DNC blacklist for a long time.. They don't even bother, being brutally honest for a couple of election cycles, via phone & door to door will keep the kooks from calling/stopping by.

[Petronski]

Put some ice on that.

Did you lie through your teeth and tell him you’re in the tank for The One?
