There are reports this morning from members and on social media that people are receiving robocalls from an organization called "Run Hillary 2012". 

I was able to find this website that looks like it could be the organization doing this.

So far I have reports from people in NC and NY.

Did you get one?

(Audio) Romney making illegal Robocalls in SC #robos

Shaun Dakin, CEO and Founder, The National Political Do Not Contact Registry

CNN is reporting that Nikki Haley, Governor of SC, has been making robocalls today in SC.

The good news is that the Romney robocalls are have full disclosure on the calls. Good going Mitt !

The bad news is that robocalls are illegal in SC.

Here is the law. ( Link to the law here.)

SECTION 16-17-446. Regulation of automatically dialed announcing device (ADAD).
(A) "Adad" means an automatically dialed announcing device
which delivers a recorded message without assistance by a live operator
for the purpose of making an unsolicited consumer telephone call as
defined in Section 16-17-445(A)(3). Adad calls include automatically
announced calls of a political nature including, but not limited to,
calls relating to political campaigns. Here is the call. Link to audio here.

"Hi, this is Gov. Nikki Haley, and this morning I announced my
endorsement of Mitt Romney for President of the United States," Haley
says in the call, which was received by a Republican voter in Rock Hill
who provided it to CNN.

"Mitt Romney knows what it means to make decisions, real decisions, not
simply cast a vote," Haley says in the call. "He is not a creature of
Washington. He knows how the private economy works, how to fix it, and
most importantly how to solve problems. And he has proven it."

The "Uncle" Letter that killed the robocall to mobile phone bill #HR3035

I'll write more about this victory, but this letter from Rep Lee Terry, the bill's sponsor, say's it all.

The title of the document is "Uncle Letter".

Thanks to many many of you who signed petitions and called your representatives to tell them to "kill this bill".

Story:

This is something that we have been noticing recently. US Political robocalls being sent into Canada. Specifically to Canadian businesses that have 1-800 numbers set up for use by the US Customers of those Canadian businesses.

There is no reason why this should be happening.

Even stranger is this robocall where the caller is discussing Chris Christie for President. 

Chris Christie dropped out of the race (he was never in it) many months ago.

Who: ??
Where: Quebec, Canada
When: 12/02/2011
What: Robocall by an unidentified group supporting Chris Christie for President?
