If you go to the site the previous commenter listed, you can place yourself on their no-call list. I'm glad I didn't pick up the phone, and I'd bet $10 it's about Issue 1 (similar anti-gay ballot initiative here in Ohio). Jerks.

They're likely calling states that have a gay marriage issue on the ballot, which Ohio does, and I'm assuming Georgia does as well.

How are they getting our number? I dont answer it b/c I dont recognize the number, but I do know that when I dial the number from my cell phone, it says Virginia. I was unaware that this was a VA area code, I lived in VA for 22 years. Any new info on this, please post. This number has called us about 3 times, we live in Hawaii. How are they getting our number?

Just so you know, I received this call at my home in Little Rock, AR and am also wondering why I got this call especially since I have found a post elsewhere on the Internet that they were questioned about Oregon Amendment 36 which obviously does not apply to people in Arkansas (our corresponding "marriage protection" amendment is Amendment Number 3). By the way, I finished voting at 11:50 AM today, so, when I received the call at 2:25 PM today, the VERY FIRST question asked did NOT apply to me since it asked whether or not the person being questioned intends to vote in the upcoming election (this implies voting IN THE FUTURE, I voted for this UPCOMING election IN THE PAST ;-P )<br /><br />Michelle T. aka Pegasus I was away from home when I received a call from (571) 522-1899 and they did not leave a message, so, I am glad that someone has posted what this probably was about.
