Person leaving the message was foreign and singing words that I do not know.

The Caller-ID showed "Michigan". They asked for my wife by name. I asked why and the caller said it was a survey about local issues. That immediately told me it was a survey run by Democrats as my wife is a registered Democrat and I am a Republican. I'm sure they were trying to drum up support for Mark Udall (D) CO and Governor John Hickenlooper (D). Both men are a POS and don't deserve reelection. My wife didn't want to talk to them anyway. It was the second call in a half hour. I wasn't very nice to the caller and told her to not call here again.

I get these also, twice a day now.  When I answer trying to talk with someone I only hear a beep then dead air.  I wonder if this company has found a way to "cook the books" for whomever they are doing surveys for by all these dead air calls.

This number has called our home 4-7 times after 8 PM. I did pick it up twice and both times I got an electronic beep followed by silence. Same number over a period of three days, weekend and weekday.
