‘America’s Most Wanted’ host wades into Dunwoody race
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
How intense are these six council races for the new city of Dunwoody?
Hot enough that, in the contest between Mallard Holliday and Robert Wittenstein, famed TV bad-guy hunter John Walsh of “America’s Most Wanted” has weighed in.
Via a robo-call to local residents. The calls went out Monday afternoon.
Apparently, Walsh and Holliday have worked together before. “Mallard Holliday and I have worked together for years, making this world safer for our children,” Walsh says in the endorsement.

It is too bad that politicians continue to exempt themselves from Do Not Call law.
StopPoliticalCalls.org is fighting for the privacy of the American voter.
1 - Creating a Political Do Not Call Registry 2 - Testifying in the US Senate about robo calls (Sen. Feinstein’s Robocall Privacy Act) 3 - Forcing states to enforce existing robo call laws (CA, MN, NJ, etc..) 4 - Getting politicians to take a do not robo call pledge (7 have)
As I testified at the US. Senate these robo calls are an epidemic and this election cycle “phone spam” and are invading the privacy of All American Voters.
Our members are taking a stand and saying enough is enough at the National Political Do Not Contact Registry at StopPoliticalCalls.org.
Here is a quote from a member recently:
“I’m a shift worker, working variable shifts. I depend on my sleep to be able to do my job safely and efficiently. I’m a locomotive engineer. Imagine the disaster were I to fall asleep, operating a freight train carrying hazardous materials in your neighborhood, due to fatigue from being awoken in my middle of the night on a continuous basis during election season. Please stop..”
