Robomania
The election is today. A good harbinger of technological things to come in the political world is the use of so-called robo-calling. Both parties are wildly dialing households in contested areas over and over in an attempt to influence today's election. The Republicans appear to be worse, often making it seem like it's a Democrat annoying the citizen by witholding the identification of the candidate until the end of the call.
Why can they do this in violation of the do-not-call registry? Because they exempted themselves (political fundraisers) from the restrictions.
Bastards.
