Investigate Republican Robo Calls

Living in the 19th District here in New York, I was invaded by the attack of the Robo calls on the Friday-Sunday before the election at my home in Peekskill. Also, as a volunteer supporting the campaign of John Hall, I experienced first hand the anger of some voters upset at the incessant calling. The phone attacks had an impact, but did not keep John Hall from marching to victory...but, those calls were unethical, dishonest and perhaps illegal. Below is a list of some of the money spent in the Republican Robo Calls attacks on Democratic candidate, and as you can see, John Hall was ON THE LIST.

NRCC Has Spent $2.1 Million on Calls, Nearly $600,000 on Attack Calls in the Last Week Alone. As of last week, the NRCC had spent $2.1 million on phone banks. From 10/30 to 11/3, the NRCC spent $597,232.75 on phone calls solely designed to attack 46 Democratic candidates. [www.fec.gov]
