Got Phone Polled

Last night I received a phone call asking if I would participate in a short political poll. "Of course", I said. This is the very first time in all my adult years I was ever asked!!! I was all excited in participating sooooo.....First question: If the election for president were held today please state how you would vote
-Definitely Bush
-Leaning Bush
-Definitely Kerry
-Leaning Kerry

My response, Definitely Kerry

They then thanked me for my participation and read some pre-prepared statement that this was conducted by the DNC so on and so forth.

It was all over in two minutes tops. I was happy to participate but it was so anti-climatic!!!

By the way I'm in PA.

1. This is what's called internal polling.

You are now on a list for GOTV. If you said somehting else, you would go on a list for either targeting or be ignored.

9. GOTV includes a lot.

It could be a phone call, a personal visit, sending you an absentee ballot and a bunch of other things.
