What We Will Do For You:
As a Non-Profit Voter Advocacy Organization we will:
- Securely collect your
contact
information.
- Send your contact information to ALL interested political parties, candidates, political action committees, and any other organization that makes political robo calls and ensure that they are told that you no longer want robo calls from them.
As seen on ABC News, CNN, USA Today, the LA Times, the New York Daily News and on NPR , The National Political Do Not Contact Registry is fighting for you, the American voter.
What is the NPDNC
Registry and what do we do for
you?
- Who: We are a non-profit, non-partisan organization located in Washington, DC. We receive no funding from outside organizations. Funding comes directly from contributions of individual voters. That means you can be assured that we are independent and free from any political influence.
- Advocacy:
We advocate
for you, the voter. We make sure that
politicians understand that
Political Automated Robocalls simply don't
work. We ask that
politicians stop calling you and all
voters. Our core belief is that
the market will work, eventually.
That is, politicians will realize
that it is no longer in their self interest to
robocall you, the
voter. They have every incentive to stay
in office. Calling you 15 times a day
will not earn them your vote.
- Action:
We distribute our National Political Do Not
Contact Registry database to all interested
politicians, political action committees,
advocacy organizations and many other exempt
groups and ask that they not call
those voters that have
registered.
- Education:
We work with candidates and advocacy groups to
educate them
on the effectiveness (lack of) of political
robo calls and encourage
them to use alternate channels to communicate
with voters. Here is a link
to data about this
issue.
- Research We work with all interested groups (media, non-profits, others) to provide data, research and education on how robo calls impact voter's lives.
- Seminars: We run Voter Privacy Seminars in which we work with privacy advocates around the nation to educate the public about the impact of commercial and government entities on the privacy of you, the voter.
- Legislation: From time to time we assist legislators in their desire to implement new laws around this issue. For example, In 2008 we worked with Sen. Feinstein to help introduce the Robocall Privacy Act. At the state level we work with State's Attorney General to enforce existing robocall regulations (for example: IN, MN and NC)

Automated calls flood SC ahead of GOP primary
"All the evidence shows they don't work at all," said Shaun Dakin, founder of the National Political Do Not Contact Registry. He says some people refuse to vote for candidates who use automated telephone pitches and says he's been hearing plenty of complaints about Romney, in particular, burning up phone lines.
