Bizarre Robo-call Attacks Congressman Thompson

By David GreenwaldOctober 28, 200880 comments
Given the dynamics of this year, it would take a lot for us to have to cover to Congressional Race at all. Congressman Mike Thompson is a well-known and respected member of Congress in a safe district that extends from Yolo County through Napa County to the coast and all the way up to the Oregon Border.

His opponent is a 27-year old graduate of UC Davis.

This story is just simply bizarre. A robo-call that went out to voters across the district heard a “breathy woman intone” that “Mike Thompson’s been a bad boy.”

As the Capitol Alert describes:

“With a seductive voice more suited to an escort service than political outreach, the woman suggestively urges listeners to “vote ‘yesssss’ for Zane,” the Republican challenger to Thompson, a Democratic congressman.”

Zane Starkewolf, the 27-year old Republican nominee and a graduate of UC Davis, apologized in an interview with the Sacramento Bee for the message and said he “took full responsibility” for the calls, which he said went out to 100,000 phone numbers across the district.

“Starkewolf said he provided the text and the idea (He wanted “something to be impactful,” he said), but an unpaid staffer recorded the message and “she took a little liberty with how she interpreted the text.”

Still, in the interview and in a statement on his Web site, Starkewolf defended the call.

“I believe it is good to get enthusiasm back into politics,” he wrote on his site. “…And if a message needs to go out that is “appalling” in a sense in order to get the discussion going, then I believe it is a worthy cause.”

…

Starkwolf said voters should be more appalled with Thompson’s vote for the bailout than his call.

“They have to pay $3,000 (per person) for this bailout and they are more worried about this phone call,” he said in frustration.

As for parents worried about children answering his robo-call, Starkewolf said they were “not looking at the financial costs their children will have to deal with” due to the bailout Congress passed.”

There are probably better ways to get across a message of concern about the bailout. The story is now not about his message but about his methods. The first rule in politics is not to step on your message.

On the other hand, we would not be talking about this race at all except for the bizarreness of this story. So he’s probably in a no-win situation, a catch-22.

Just yesterday he had a typical bio-article run in the California Aggie. He is a UCD alumnus and currently a graduate student in chemistry. He describes himself as a “green Republican” and pushes a variety of green issues although overall he is more of a libertarian.

Just another day in the People’s Republic of Davis I suppose except this one is a Republican.

  9. why would the PUC fine him? for allowing a recording of a lusty sounding robo call? why are the robo calls “illegal?” they may be silly, and not a good reflection of the candidate, but i don’t believe they are “illegal.”

  21. anonymous 11:19, that link does not say robo-calls from politicians are illegal.

    You need to go to this link, http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/cacodes/puc/2871-2876.html

    I read the CPUC sections and don’t really know the answer, but I think anonymous 11:19 is right that they are illegal. Have any pols been prosecuted for violating this law? I have received dozens of robo-calls over the past few years of this type, though none as stimulating as the one from that lady.

    Our CD is designed to always elect a Democrat no matter what. Look how it carves out zip codes which have higher Republican registration numbers. It’s bad for democracy that our elections are not competitive by design. So yeah, Mike may as well be running unopposed or in favor of child molestation. Nothing matters. Mike will win.

  37. Is it bad for Democracy?

    That’s subject to debate. I’ve seen interesting research to suggest that it’s not that bad.

    For instance, in terms of representation, if you have a district that is say 70% Democrat and it elects a Democrat, only 30% of the people have their views not represented. If you have a district that is 50-50, nearly half the population falls into that category. So for representational purposes, it would seem that the reverse is true.

  49. “if you have a district that is say 70% Democrat and it elects a Democrat, only 30% of the people have their views not represented.”

    If you ditch district elections and have proportional representation, 100% of the people have their views represented. You could also have district elections, but instead have 10 regional districts with 12 seats per district, apportioning the seats based on proportional representation of the parties.

    The problem with terribly uncompetitive districts is that they discourage minority voters to participate in elections. Those minorities can never win when you stack the deck against them.

  53. But you still end up representing a far greater number of voters than you would in a more competitive district. Proportional representation has advantages over single member districts, it also has some disadvantages.

  61. I was going to vote for Thompson, and I had never heard anything about another candidate. Now I know we have one of UCD’s own running. And if he gets elected, maybe he can promise that the breathy female will answer his phones when constituents call? (That would be me, now!)

    Is the sexy voice Zane’s Palin?? Hey Zane, does she wear red dresses with black spike heal boots? We all want to know!

    ps Seriously, his unpaid volunteer just got him huge amounts of free air time, even blog time. Not bad for an “innocent” mistake? Maybe Zane is a very, very smart UCD student? Aren’t they all?

  69. When 70% of the population is putting up its candidate, it’s easier for them to get a more extreme candidate elected (like really far left or really far right). In many districts where the voting goes to these extremes, it’s a lot more than 30% who are not represented. People in the middle don’t feel represented either.

  73. Not necessarily. It depends on the district. For instance, Mike Thompson is certainly not an extreme candidate. If you go to somewhere like Berkeley, you end up with more extreme candidates, but there is likely no way to avoid that.

    Because of our state’s large Congressional Districts — each has around 720,000 people — it takes a lot of money to become well known in your district. My guess is that the money factor has somewhat of a moderating effect (and, of course, a corrupting effect). Even though only Democratic primary voters decide who our Rep will be, a member of Congress needs to appeal to a large number of people with money. Most of those monied people will not be from our district; they might not even be Democrats. If the candidate is extremely left in his views, I think it will be harder for him or her to win over the support of the money-givers.

    The exception to this, though, is when the member of Congress (or the presumptive replacement) is famous as some kind of an activist, who made his or her name without raising much money. Those members of Congress (or the state legislature) can afford to be more extreme in their views. But, I suppose, those “extremists” are in line with the politics of their districts, at least with their party.

Most of those monied people will not be from our district; they might not even be Democrats. If the candidate is extremely left in his views, I think it will be harder for him or her to win over the support of the money-givers.

    The exception to this, though, is when the member of Congress (or the presumptive replacement) is famous as some kind of an activist, who made his or her name without raising much money. Those members of Congress (or the state legislature) can afford to be more extreme in their views. But, I suppose, those “extremists” are in line with the politics of their districts, at least with their party.
