Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton ran a campaign ad that told voters she would be good at responding to phone calls in the middle of the night.

Mayoral candidate Sarah Thomson is making phone calls to voters in the middle of the night.

Thomson unleashed a wave of campaign robocalls between midnight and 1:30 a.m. on Friday, awakening, frightening and angering people around the city. The longshot who has taken to riding a horse for the sake of publicity said the timing of the blitz was an accident — and that she was herself awakened, at 12:30 a.m., by her own wayward call.

“I apologize to all + anyone who was woken by a robocall — I’ve personally called the company and had them stopped,” she wrote on Twitter.

In a subsequent interview via Twitter message, she said didn’t know exactly what happened. The robocalls, she said, were scheduled for a regular evening hour.

She then, immediately, lobbied for an article on her political platform.

“Went out at 7:15 p.m., but it looks like it stopped at 7:30 p.m., started again at 12:30 a.m. Can’t you write about my congestion policy I announced today?” she said.

Entertainment photographer Dominic Chan said a 12:45 a.m. call woke up his 4-year-old son. He has already filed a complaint with the CRTC.

“It’s elections, right, so we’re expecting these kind of phone calls, it is what it is, but at 12:45 a.m., you gotta be serious. You expect some kind of emergency phone call, you don’t expect an advertisement,” he said.

“It was just a run-of-the-mill election call,” said Christine Baldacchino, who was called around 12:50. “My husband hung up pretty quickly when he realized what it was. We were both pretty angry. When the landline rings so late, you can’t help but think it’s an emergency, that something’s happened to someone.”

Chan said the call invited him to a Sunday barbecue with Thomson. Baldacchino said she wasn’t sure what the call said: her husband hung up too fast.

Farzana Doctor, a novelist and psychotherapist, said she got two calls, at 12:52 a.m. and 1:10 a.m. She ended her Twitter post on the matter with the hashtag “#crappycampaign.”
