Same here. I made the mistake of answering a pollster during the
2004 elections. I thought I'd NEVER get finished with that call.

I had the same experience back when the San Fernando Valley
was trying to break off as a separate city from Los Angeles.
I'm pretty sure the telephone pollster was working for The LA Times
trying to drum up "evidence" the public didn't want the schism.

This household does NOT do telephone polls.
Which means we've said "No thank you" and hung up on two pollsters
already this season.

Which means we've said "No thank you" and hung up on two pollsters already this season.

I have an extension in the garage and answered it several times before I got one of those cheap caller IDs. I'd hang up on pollsters so fast. I even had one call back, and ask WHY didn't answer his questions. Before he got much more out of his mouth, I hung up on him the second time.

Either pollsters don’t call us for some reason, or we are just not here to pick up the phone. Also, we still have dial-up so when on-line, no one can get through. We do have cell phones but only for emergency use by us, so they are never “on.” Don’t know if pollsters can reach cell phones anyway.

I WISH some pollster would reach me; I’d like to give them a piece of my “bitter” mind.
