No, but even if I had, I certainly wouldn't have given them my cell phone number as a contact.

I suppose it could really be the Democratic National Committee, if they're trying to annoy people into voting Republican. But it seems like such a shady operation (endless hang-up calls, calling cell phone numbers, hard-to-identify voice mail, etc.) that I find it hard to believe it's really that DNC. They aren't *that* clueless, are they?
