t said, "stop calling me."
Okay "t". You won't get any calls from 800notes users, I promise :) .

This number is periodically used for the political campaigns of one candidate or another. I can't say I am irresponsible enough to vote against a good candidate because of these kinds of calls, but they really aggravate me.
I can say that if the candidate was someone I was on the fence about, it would very likely lose them my vote.
And if I think the candidate is a bum, then they haven't changed my mind, they've just confirmed my opinion.
All and all, I think automated phone calls are one of the poorest approaches to campaigning possible. But politicians of both parties are just arrogant enough to think we are persuaded by their silly canned phone calls.
