Reports of GOP Illegally robo calling

There are widespread reports across the nation that the GOP is engaging in harassing phone calls. The calls open with a script that implies that the call is from a Democratic candidate. If the recipient hangs up, they believe that the call came from the Democratic Candidate. At this point, the recipient is immediately dialed again. If the recipient does not listen to the call in it's entirety, the recipient will be continuously called.

If the the call recipient does not hang up, the call continues with a standard attack/negative information about the candidate. It is only at the end of the call that the caller is actually identified as originating from the National Republican Campaign Committee.

The Wetterling campaign is monitoring the situation and asks you to call campaign offices if you are the recipient of one of these illegal attack calls.
