simply dont understand why this number keeps showing up
as U/K - cannot call it back...
argh
so much for spending $$ with AT&T to stop these annoyance calls!

if this were a right wing fundamentalist doing this

yea and they railroaded don Segalman  thanks too carl rove and his gang of rethuglicans THERE WAS NO BRIBES B***HES

This number is NOW apparently being used by an organization that is trying to discredit Mo Brooks (candidate for Alabama Congressional district #5) for signing the pledge "Contract From America" when it said (for item #9 of the pledge) simply "Stop the Pork."  When the candidate for Congress was made aware that a second, more detailed, version of the pledge that explicitly called for "no earmarks" was now on the website, Mo Brooks retracted his support for the Contract from America.  This organization is using people's ignorance about what an earmark actually is to try to discredit Mo Brooks.  From the robocall message, it sounds as if the message is from the Tea Party, but it is not.  

The fact that this is the very same number that was used earlier this year to promote gambling in Alabama is very interesting.  Democrat candidate Steve Raby (Mo Brooks' opponent) now finds himself caught up indictments of 4 Alabama state senators due to his involvement in being the middleman (thru his Political Action Committees) for bribe money they received.  Could this call simply be a diversion to try to redirect the public away from Steve Raby's involvement with PAC money and the illegal bribes to Alabama state senators?

The gambling interests in Alabama used this number to push a pro-gambling message.  Now the SAME NUMBER is being used to sling mud at a Republican congressional candidate.  Coincidence?  I think not.

I got a call from this number. They called me 3 times! I didn't answer and no message was left. If they call you, do not answer!

Don't be a stick in the mud - just answer the survey.  How else are we to get what we want (or don't want) if we're always so uptight over every little thing?  It's not like they're asking you to buy anything and bulk mail is now a thing of the past.  Not every little issue can be on the ballot at election time.

Relax people it's just a survey.  Most people complain when they hear the lastest results for this or that poll that they were never asked to participate ... you are now and you're bellyaching and calling federal agencies.  Silly

For the last year or so I have gotten similar calls and over the last days calls from this number at home and on my cell phone.

I suspect that they are getting our phone numbers off of the voter registration list.  You can call the county registrar's office and ask them to remove your phone number but be aware that it's already out there & will only keep it from being further distributed.  The staff at the registrar's office will not be inclined to remove it because they like to have it on hand if there is ever confusion about your voter registration.  Dont blame them - it is why they like to have it.  The employees probably dont realise that it gets sent out to the political parties.

As if they really check this list - I cant stand these calls and even made a point not to vote for a person who's calls drove me nuts last fall.  I coudnt give a darn if we have bingo or not - that money will never make it into school coffers.  BTW, Parker Griffiths ppl can quit calling me until he pays back all of the contributors that paid for his campaign just like he promised.

Called 10 times in a row....Left some word on the message and then hung up...10 times...

my question is...am i paying 4 these little "surveys?" I think I am. AT & T is gonna get chewed out! This is BS!

I've received three calls from this number in the last 24 hours. I wish someone could put a stop to it.

Also go here and report them: http://www.callercomplaints.com/

They called my wife 5 times today and 5 times yesterday. This is ridiculous. I wanna sue for harassment.

I have had this number call at least 5 times in the last few days

This is a push poll.  It is a telemarketing political campaign technique to sway your opinion on electronic gambling in Alabama.  It is not a survey even though it pretends to be.  If it were a legitimate survey, it would not be anonymous and it would have been more than one quick question.  Real surveys need demographic information like gender or age to make sure the survey reflects the community.  Push polls just want to reach as many voters as possible in the shortest amount of time possible.  No one will tally your response.  This is also considered unethical.

I got 2 calls as well and I didnlt answer either b/c didn't know the number. Looked it up online b/c didn't leave message and thought this was odd. If someone really wanted to talk to me bad enough to call me 2 times in a short amount of time they would leave a message. Also disturbed they have my cell as I am also on the do not call list.

PS - don't bother trying to call them back - their "mailbox is full" - I'm sure from people like me who would give them a piece of my mind about unwelcomed calls!!!!

I do not agree with the tactics in this situation (it can be described as annoying at best), but I must admit I did participate in the 'survey'.  WE really do need to vote, as a state . . it will at the very least let the people decide whether to regulate and tax these operations.  And, unlike the self-described "Joe" (above) apparently believes, we did not vote for this under Gov. Siegelman - that was a vote on a state-wide lottery -- which yes,  is a vote re: gambling - but tis is not the same!  THIS would establich a commission under which individual counties can opt out - just like wet/dry counties do currently - and tax monies enter our coffers unlike now where we get NOTHING!  It is what it is . . . money is money & we have none in this state - and millions leave our borders each year (sigh)!

who is it

Got the call on my cell phone just after 2pm today. I didn't answer because I didn't recognize it, but searched to see who it might belong to. This is where I ended up. I won't bother returning the call, obviously.

Must be Milton McGregor trying to push for gambling. If you dig into it I'll "bet" he is at the bottom of it.

I just received the same phone number! (2-4-2010) They hung up, no message was left. Annoying!

I just received a call from this number and they left a message.  When I checked it, it sounded like some let out a grunt and hung up.  Who are these idiots?

I just received this call on my cell number. I did not answer because I did not recognize the number. Obviously, I am not the only one. Still not sure who it is?

I got a call from this # today (02/04/10) as well, with no message. Strange.

I answered and it was a survey on whether or not people should be able to vote on Bingo in Alabama.  We already had a vote on gambling back when Siegelman was Governor.  The results were 70% no  30% yes.

Guarantee Uncle Milt is funding part of the calls

Also got the survey for Bingo. I didn't vote-just waited for some option to be removed from their list, which was NOT provided. Called back and it just says "This mailbox is full and cannot accept any more messages."  Maybe will continue to try back at 3 and 4 in the AM just on the offchance I can one day get through and annoy someone the way they just annoyed me.

I would REALLY like to know how they got my cell phone number, which is for private use and is on the Do Not Call List.

Already reported this number at Do Not Call and the FCC sites.

Two times today, missed it both times. They left a 5 second vm of silence.

glad it wasn't an important phone call, lol

Yeah, my wife got called by this number earlier today same stupid number. She didn't get to answer it b/c she was at work.

Called once while I was in my Infectious Disease class and once while I was at work. Inclined to believe it's a survey call. There are commercials for whatever politician is in an uproar over bingo or Indian casinos. I hope they don't call back during anymore classes...
