Voting day and phone calls

I suppose I'm not any different than most of you, but it seems like "local" elections generate way more unwelcome phone calls than do the national variety. Also, TONS of negative junk election mail has flooded our mail box the past three months. Thankfully, voting ends in a few hours. Then all I have to worry about are people calling to offer me a better home mortgage or low interest credit card. I have to admit, being stationed overseas away from these idiot phone solicitors was a benefit of military service I truly miss.
