Has anyone else received Trump's robocall?

I have received it 5 times in the last 6 days. It's horrible. I've also learned something about my voting behavior. I'm less likely to vote for your candidate with each robocall I get, and I was never ever going to vote for Trump in the first place. Robocalls are a gift from Hell!

note the number it was called from? I ask because I keep getting calls (as many as 5 PER DAY) from "unknown." which I always ignore. Now, I know that could come from different places, but this is something that's been happening very recently.

If it's good news, they can leave a voicemail.

ETA: Could anyone else in your household have been identified as a Trump supporter somehow?

I think it may be because of where I live. Alabama. He may be blanketing the state. We also don't have to register a party here, so he wouldn't know my affiliation. His people obviously haven't bothered to look up contributions to Dems this cycle, or they wouldn't bother with me.

Sanders won that by a landslide (45 points).

But Washington, DC is the last one to hold theirs, on June 14. Maybe that's what you meant?

Washington State holds a primary on May 24. The Washington State Democratic party does not honor it choosing to pick their delegates through the caucus instead.

The Republicans do however. Trump was in this state last Saturday.

And I think the GOP uses the primary results for delegate awarding

I waited to the end of the robocall hoping to hit 9 for FU, or something; however it did say hit 9 for "unsubscribe" which I gladly did!

But if I can stop it, I'll listen through and hit 9. Thanks.

haven't gotten one of those yet, but I expect I will. Did get 'em from Sanders and they kept calling even after I told 'em to stop.
