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.

    I used to live in rural PA, I moved to NYC a few years ago but my name is still on a lot of caller lists apparently.

    I just received a call yesterday from Pennsylvania Democrats asking “What of Joe Biden’s policies excite you the most?” And I said “none of them, I’m voting for the Green Party”

    This was followed by about ten seconds of painful silence then an “are you sure?” I’m assuming he meant to say sure but kind of cut himself off and then we had another 5 seconds of silence before the guy on the other end of the line finally said “ok goodbye” and hung up lol
