Nothing nefarious going on here Eva. I don't know why you would say the call was "strange". There are no "strange" questions being asked. Pretty run of the mill for a political campaign in my mind. Certainly as long as you have mingled in politics you can't think polling voters is a new or "strange" phenomenon. The woman doing the polling is not "from the Lilligren campaign" as you quoted, she was hired by the campaign. There is quite a difference in those meanings. Robert is mailing literature to the voters, doorknocking the voters, appearing at events and celebrations voters are hosting and yes, educating them to get registered, showing them where to vote and polling them through an independent source to find out who they may be supporting and what their issues are. Robert wants to convince the voters of the 6th ward that he is passionate about his desire to represent them, that he is working hard to get their vote and through his accomplishments as a freshman council member that he is the best choice to represent the people of the 6th ward.
