This would put me off voting for them if I got one of those calls.

World's dumbest take.

"The Democratic party is annoying me with phone calls, so I'm going to let the fascists take over the country."

There's two ways you could have interpreted that comment.

The first, is that this would have annoyed me, and been a factor, but not the factor, in deciding my vote.

The second, is that I would vote for the other guys out of spite.

You went with the big brain option.
