The election is now over, but many voters are still steaming about all the calls they received from political campaigns.

Is it legal? Unfortunately, yes. The Government's official do not call list exempts political calls.

However, there is a voluntary list called Stop Political Calls.org. CLICK HERE

Only problem: Many campaigns do not abide by this list.

If you want to try for next year, feel free to sign up. It can't hurt if you are getting a lot of calls. But it is voluntary, with no guarantees it will work.

As always, don't waste your money.
