Related: About this forumAnybody else getting political survey calls this weekend?
My husband got one last night, but he was too old (they already had enough 55+ respondents), but they were happy to talk to our 20 year old son. I got one that I was "too old" for, and one where they talked to me. Very obviously a push poll for some Rethug state house seat - don't know which one, wasn't my district.
At least all that Koch money is paying a few dollars to people who have to work for a living, that is to say, the people doing these survey calls.

I usually ask where they are calling from. If it is from Utah it is probably a Republican push poll. Some firm out there that seems to do only Republican garbage.
BTW - if you can try to figure out what the gist of the call is and then if you can contact the campaign that is being attacked or the county Dems and let them know what is going on. This helps give them a heads up on how and by whom they are being attacked. It can be valuable to a campaign so they can respond.
