… I know you mean well. You want to support your candidate, and you want to support participation in the political process. I agree with those goals, and would like to express my support of those goals. I’d love to get more people engaged in the process, and I understand and respect the importance of elections, both on a local, and national level.

That said, go fuck yourselves. Having four people call me from various campaigns between 6pm and 6:40pm on a weekday night is NOT the way to get people involved in the process. Disturbing their dinner, or their relaxing evening with pre-recorded bullshit, or people who instantly start talking at high-speed about their various candidates and why you should support them is just about the most irritating, invasive, and obnoxious way I can imagine to help people understand who they should vote for and/or why.

STOP CALLING ME, dammit. Stop calling me in the middle of the work day, stop calling me at night, at my home. Stop calling me on the weekends, on the weekdays, in the mornings, evenings, afternoons, or nights. Stop calling me, period. I’m going to vote, but I can see why people would stop, after being pestered by an army of fucking telemarketers. Stop it already.
