I have lived here for seven years and have only had a few instances where someone has knocked on my door or used the bell. It did not bother me that a representative from a local church was inviting me to visit, or a couple of landscapers that were soliciting work. As long as a political representative does not mind my discussion with him/her I do not take offense at the short interruption. I am hardly that busy and my TV has a "pause" button. It would not bother me, EVEN if a Democrat solicited my vote by knocking at my door. There are plenty of other things to worry about or concern myself over, so a minute interruption in my daily activities is not going to ruin my day. AND I have never been rude to someone that knocked on my door. I simply know how to say "NO" when I mean no. On the other hand, I do abhor spam and scam phone calls. But, that is another subject.
A knock at the door is a nothing burger, in my opinion.
