After calling three times in less than two hours, I finally decided to pick up the phone to see what this was. It's an automated political survey, no live person at the other end. The first few questions of the survey are (paraphrased, might not be the exact wording):
1) If the election were being held today, who would you vote for? 1- Rick Scott, 2-Charlie Christ, 3- Don't know
2) In your opinion, has Florida's economy for you under Governor Scott: 1-improved, 2-gotten worse, 3-stayed the same?
3) Is Governor Scott's role in Florida's recovery: 1-very positive, 2-somewhat positive, 3-somewhat negative, 4-very negative?
At this point, between the types of questions being asked and the fact that the call originated in Tallahassee, I was able to pretty much surmise that the survey was being done for Governor Scott's re-election campaign, and hung up. I probably wasn't going to vote for him anyway, but after bothering me three times while I'm trying to eat supper, I have even less reason to vote for him.
