Weird robocall/survey in Alabama.

Local (Baldwin County) state senate race between repug incumbent and 'independent' (really a Dem) challenger.

Press '1' if you will vote for repug, press '2' for independent.

But call came from 617 area code.
That's Boston and surrounding area.
What gives???

Apparently the 617 area code has a lot of cheap boiler rooms.

In addition, there are Republican blockheads there the equal of the ones in Dixie.

I lived there too long, I'm not surprised.
