My fiancé just got a call. It went something like this.

————

Biden campaign: hi I was wondering if we can count on your vote for Biden this election?

Fiancé: honestly I’m really not sure. I’m having a really hard time deciding who I am going to vote for. I might vote third party.

Biden campaign: well have a great night!

Fiancé: umm...you too?

Seriously Lol anybody that has done phone canvassing knows this is the EXACT type of answer you want to hear to follow up on and have a conversation with the person to try to convince them.

Sad.

    Blows my mind that shit like this happens in the US, not once in my pitiful 27 year existence in then shiity white north has anyone from any party called me to tell me to vote. We just get a month of shitty ads and signs everywhere then another neoliberal takes charge.

      Huh, I've gotten lots of texts like this in the last few Canadian elections, provincial and federal. I know my parents would get phone calls probably because they have a landline, but I haven't heard of them just calling up people's cellphones just yet.
