I've been polled at least six times this cycle [View all]

That does not count calls that I do not take when I'm at work. It is probably more than all the previous elections combined, and I'm 60!

What's the deal? I can't be the only red state, 55+ white male that they want to survey.

It can be annoying, but I feel I need to speak out for my demographic so I let them know that I already voted straight "D".
