The Cordray robocall was on my answering machine today. So far I've gotten 2 from Obama's campaign (Coleman & Cordray) and 2 with Shrillary speaking/ranting.

I just received it, too

My wife and I have received two robocalls from both Clinton and Obama. Since we are new Ohio voters (just moved here last April), we must be in the prime targeting group, at least for team Clinton (we are on the list as Obama supporters, though). Still haven't seen any Clinton mailers, though.

Robocalls, hate 'em.

I've gotten four robocalls and one live call from Team Hillary, and none from Team O. The last robocall was Hillary's voice. She was being all angry and tough and "setting the record straight" and all. I hung up fairly early.

Even though they got my phone number right, they've got the wrong number on me.

Mooooore robocalls:

Interestingly enough, I've yet to receive one robocall from Hillary Clinton (the one robo I had online was given to me by a friend). That's got me perplexed. Why isn't the Clinton campaign calling me?

Well, a birdie told me a while back that Ohio Voter File microtargeting had me (incorrectly) labeled as a tossup in the '06 race, leaning slightly (once again, incorrectly) to Blackwell. Apparently the new voter interface can display complicated targeting like this. Perhaps Clinton is only targeting the Democratic diehards, and I've been left out of the mix. Likewise, if that is her strategy it's interesting I'm getting calls from Obama. That would seem to suggest, if my hypothesis is correct, that he's targeting the full range of voters.

I've yet to receive any mailings from Clinton yet too, and I have requested an absentee ballot.
