Arkansas Leader story - Telemarketers slam Sherwood residents with negative questions on annexation:
http://www.arkansasleader.com/2008/02/top-story-phone-calls-irk-sherwood.html
Have you received a survey call from ARM Services? They are calling residents in Sherwood from phone number 1-866-400-1647. The company is based in Tulsa, OK. ARM uses recorded messages and live callers. Minimum technical setup is $500, $75 per hour, and $25 per hour for outbound calling services. The company refused to tell KATV their client's name. This activity does not pass the "smell" test.

They called my house four times, but I was at work. Maybe they will call back.
What were they asking?
They missed me too.
They called my house three times but I was also gone to work. My neighbors were called and they said that the questions were asked in such a manner to illicit a negative response from the people receiving the calls.
Smells to me like someone in Jacksonville or an Angry Gravel Ridge resident are trying to skew the annexation election on March 11th.
We can't let this type of controversial and negative "surveying" affect this important election.
I agree with the comments of Mayor Hillman in the KATV interview. Sherwood might be divided on some issues, but the annexation of Gravel Ridge is not one of them. This survey stinks!
All of Sherwood needs to get out and vote beginning March 4th, and on March 11th, when the final votes are tallied; whoever is behind these distasteful tactics will have just wasted their money.
