Ron Freidhof, the undecided Bettendorf voter called at work by Barack Obama has another call to take.
National Public Radio has recruited him for a call-in roundtable discussion Friday morning with undecided voters across the nation.
Freidhof was contacted after his Obama call was broadcast over the news and Youtube. His wife, Cynthia, was among those at Obama’s forum Monday at the Mississippi Valley Fairgrounds.
When she told the senator her husband hadn’t made up his mind, Obama grabbed a cell phone and called him at Ross’ Restaurant, owned by the Freidhofs.
Today, Ron Freidhof said he’s impressed by Obama’s attention, but he’s still not swayed.
“I’d like to hear the how-to. I like things I’m hearing, but questions how it can be accomplilshed,” he said.
Freidhof said he’d probably be working nights, or watching a Cubs game if it was on, instead of the convention. But since the Obama call, he’s been tuned in to Denver.
“I pretty much stayed with it, everybody left me alone.“
NPR asked him to keep watching this week, and the upcoming Republican National Convention as well, then report back on his decision.
Friday’s roundtable discussion is scheduled to air sometime after 8 a.m.
