The California Public Utilities Code, Section 2874, states: "Whenever telephone calls are placed through the use of an automatic dialing-announcing device, the device may be operated only after an unrecorded, natural voice announcement has been made to the person called by the person calling. The announcement shall do all of the following: 1) State the nature of the call and the name, address, and telephone number of the business or organization being represented, if any. 2) Inquire as to whether the person called consents to hear the prerecorded message of the person calling. And 3) The calling person shall disconnect the automatic dialing-announcing device from the telephone line upon the termination of the call by either the person calling or the person called.
So, in a nutshell, phone broadcasting or the placing of robo calls in California is very regulated, and not just for politicians who want to get the last say in hard fought campaigns. However, there is a solution. Without buying any expensive hardware or software, our Instant Daytime Dialer enables you to have live operators call each number on your list. If the person you are calling consents to listen to the recording from the politician, the operator pushes a button on the computer screen and the recording is played instantly. While the recording is being played, the operator is already on to the next call. It's the fastest, easiest and least expensive way to reach people in California and remain compliant with the law. A perfect way to get your candidate's message to those who want to hear it!
