Re: Political parties advertising via cell phone?

Wow, I thought it was bad enough to get inundated with television ads. I don't even want to watch anything on tv anymore, it's just one right after the other, it's almost absurd. Thank god no one's called my cell yet.

Re: Political parties advertising via cell phone?

i've actually gotten no calls. None, zero, zilch. My wife, on the other hand, has been swamped with them. Part of it is that when she registered to vote, she used her cell phone number. When someone runs for political office, they get free access to any info on you contained in your records that you used to register. So, if you registered at the DMV, you gave them a lot of info. And they're pretty good at getting other info too. And, unlike telemarketer's most of these callers are volunteers. And, on the sway votes thing. My wife is now voting for dan secord after recieving a nice call asking her too... so it does work sometimes.
