Playing Telephone

You know election day is coming up when the robocalls start flowing in. I've had three in the past two days. Two from Gov. Ed Rendell and one from Sen. Bob Casey. Rendell wants me to vote, and mentioned some local candidates. He also made a call on behalf of Judge John Younge (candidate for Superior Court). Senator Casey wanted to put in a good work for Judge Jimmy Lynn who is running for the state Commonwealth Court.

In one of Rendell's calls he acknowledged that they are annoying but robocalls allow him to contact a lot of people without spending a lot of money. Some of these calls seem to go straight to voicemail without even ringing but I could be wrong on that.
