Anti-Lamb robocall

I got two anti-Lamb calls today. The robocall that I just answered was incredibly underhanded. After the usual "press 1 for this and 2 for that" came more specific questions..questions along the line of "Connor Lamb wants to let illegal immigrants and terrorists into our country, press one if this makes you more likely to vote for him"! If you're calling to attack a candidate, be honest about it. There was an earlier call about gun control, that seemed to be an attack on Lamb while not coming out and saying it. This is dirty. Republicans must really be worried to resort to this stuff.

There's never a good outcome to any robocall. If there's no caller ID and you don't recognize the number, it's 99% robodialed. Luckily I have Verizon Fios and I can ban every robo-dialed number.
