How Do You Stop These Political Calls

[Lisa]

Ok, I have already voted. How do I make these relentless robo political calls go away!!! Elizabeth Dole is now my new best friend.

I'm getting calls from every direction. Even from the Citizen's Committee for the Support of Fallen Arches or the Citizen's for the Mandate of Green Bean Casserole for Every Holiday Committee.

Seriously HELP!

Surprisingly when politicians wrote the rules for the "Do Not Call" they made an exception for political calls.

Here's a website . . . Open Original Shared Link

Probably won't help this year and I was trying to wade through to see if they are able to stop the calls or if they are just in the process of putting together the same kind of list as the Federal Do Not Call list (which politicians are exempt from as I'm sure you know) . . . anyway, looks like they are trying.

Get any calls from EMABOFF (Ear Muffs And Booties for Our Four-legged Friends)?

I think so, but I stopped listening months ago.

So funny....I've been thinking the same thing!

[Tim-n-VA]

Maybe I'm too cyncial but I'd be really hesitant to put my name and number on that website. The techniqes listed (getting your phone number removed from the voter registration list) are probably valid.

Move to a state where everyone votes the same. Nobody calls me

You can also try Open Original Shared Link but don't know if it covers politics

[happygirl]

Nope, it doesn't, unfortunately. We learned that quickly this year. We just don't answer anymore.

Oh

uniformly-coloUred but so divided - - Central Valley is mostly McCain country - the rest - pure Obama

[Jestgar]

Funny. WA is half red and half blue, but there are more people in the blue half, so, no (national) politicin' here. And I don't mind a bit.

Im in that blue half, and we're getting an average of three calls a day. Ticks me off. Your robo call won't tell me factual information, is only trying to inflame me, and wastes money in the process. Go away machine!

This is what I do....I have a phone company which has a service that allows me to "block" phone numbers....so I jot down any offending phone number from the caller ID and add it to my "blocked" calls

list. My problem is I keep getting calls for someone who has a name similar to mine and she gets calls from

bill collectors. It annoys me to tears because this too does not come under the "Do not call list" because

the callers are just happening to dial the wrong number and getting me. But they are not deliberately diailing the wrong number; they are "fishing" for any phone number for anyone with a similar last name in my area and since I have a "listed" phone number they try my number and everyone else in my area with a

similar last name. So far it's working.

I like using caller-id and just not answering if I don't recognize the source of the call.
