So far I've explained the legislation to one lady who didn't know, out of 66 calls, and she claimed to be on board afterwards, and switched one old guy from a no (he couldn't remember why, "probably a TV ad") to a yes. The group places about 35,000 calls prior to each state ballot, which multiplies out to a lot of yes-es if the rate holds.
I hate the method, too. But they wouldn't do it if it didn't work.
