Was the depressed voter turnout caused by the candidates' campaign tactics? I think that the millions of computer-generated calls that were inflicted forward Chicago area voters during March irritated a significant number of voter to the point they did not devoted I'm sure my preferred candidate not to be found for that reason.

It is mystifying to me by what mode political experts can misunderstand in what way strongly Americans feel about intrusive telephone calls. According to the FCC almost 100 million telephone numbers are registered in succession the "do not call" registry. Campaign advisers look oblivious to the fact that just because political calls are free from that program does not mean that citizens approve.

It could master worse in November. With the political skilfuls so out of touch, they may think that the solution is to call everyone sooner and more frequently

I will supplication that the Board of Elections take away my phone number from the public voter records, the source of the numbers for mostly political calls. Additionally, I plan forward contacting every candidate likely to want my promised to request that they take my number along their automatic-dialer list.



And finally, I call upon the press to challenge each candidate to stop using computer as a replacement for campaign tenders
