Oh by the way.... I only have a cell phone!!:eek3:
voters that use only a cell phone for their phone usage are not being polled by major polling services
since many young voters have only a cell phone, their opinions are not registering - i wonder just how much this skews the poll results, toward the reps and if they vote how many the dems will pick up
should be interesting, especially in races where the polls have the candidates too close to call
and no i do not have a link, i picked this up via cnn broadcast
I pledge allegiance to the constitution of the United States of America as amended by the legislative and executive branches and interpreted by the Supreme Court
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America

I haven't had a land lne in years. I'm not poor, and I am damn sure not young. lol
I haven't had a land line since 2001.
They made kind of a big deal about this in '08, as well.
I doubt it's a significant difference, and I think I read that a lot of the young voters will be sitting this one out, anyway.
Demographics of cell phone only user can be found at Table 2, below:

And here's a report on the inherent bias in polls that sample landlines only and pegs it at +4 to 6 percentage points in favor of Republicans:

I puzzled over that one too Tom. I don't know how it is in the UK, but dial up is typically only in the remotest of locations where cable is not available. I don't know what the definitive numbers are, but I am going to guess that most have cable internet.
I see no use for land lines for personal use. Why pay two bills? Seems silly to me.
