Ever been asked to respond to a political telephone poll?

1. I have been called...
but I refuse to respond now. I used to answer their questions years ago, but the wording is so out of whack that I couldn't respond the way I wanted and finally told them I wasn't interested anymore. I do respond to the online survey from Zogby.

2. Not Zogby but
right before the election I got one of those calls. They asked first if I was for the war, if I agreed on the economy then all of a sudden they asked if I liked cheney, frist hastert and I said strongly disagree and they hung up.

3. I participate in Zogby polls online at least once a week.
Whenever they email me, I take the poll.

Recently, when I lived in Brooklyn, I took this long poll about Bloomy and what they're planning on building at the Atlantic Center. It seemed to go for ever.

5. Only been called once
Don't remember who it was. They were only interested in talking to "Rupublican's." Said there were none in our household. The lady calling sounded like someone hired for the job, not a member of the party herself. Asked her if they were paying her enough and she replied, laughing, "not really."

6. I'm always Zogbyed, and once I was telephone polled regarding a state candidate.
But that's all.

7. I just got tapped for a Zogby online poll
the first section was about impeachment; there was also a page about opinions toward Oklahoma, and 5-6 pages about Bethlehem.

8. These aren't 'real' polls. I think what he is trying to do is determine ...
the demographics of the people who can and will respond to online surveys.
