I am no longer an Georgia resident but they call anyway. I suppose there have been close to a dozen call in the past few days. Mostly I hang-up after a few words of the recorded message.

But this morning I actually listened to one. It was from the Metropolitan Atlanta Voter Education Network (or something similar). Very positive, just informed you about an upcoming referendum on transportation and urged you to get informed about it and vote. I’ve gotten quite a few others in the past few days but since I didn’t listen to much of any of them, I’m not sure if they were related to this issue, this group, or something else going on in Georgia.

But my point is that these organizations or candidates could probably save some money by not calling out of state. I lived in Geogia for 30 years but moved to Pennsylvania for over 4 years and now have a new telephone number with a Pennsylvania area code . I suppose they got the new number from some sort of updating service. But is that really a good idea?

I suppose there is an outside chance that they are thinking I could be one of those folks with 2 or more homes and still vote in Georgia. But if that was the case I think I could afford a telephone in each home.
