Center for Disease Control says there are no longer enough people with landlines.
Submitted by bedr1 on Mon, 09/10/2007 - 18:19Since the Center For Disease Control is concerned about the their polls being skewed because so many people are using cell phones, I thought we should take a poll and see how many people actually called a "personal" landline number today.
Obviously many people that are Ron Paul backers are in the 18-45 age bracket, so many of us do not even have a personal landline.
I have landlines at my place of business and do call business landlines, so for the sake of the poll we shall leave business landlines out. However, I do have people that I call that are older than the above age bracket. Of them, I still don't know anyone with a personal landline anymore.
The polls are definately skewed.
I called nobody with a personal landline today.

land line
I don't have a land line, haven't for several years. I always figured polls were unfair that way. I also wonder how current the pollster's calling list is too. How often do they update their lists? There's really a lot of questions.
Our own poll
We should conduct our own poll.
Call enough people with land lines, ask if they are registared to vote in 2008, and are willing to answer questions in our poll.
I would be very curious to see the results.
I am busy with my Post Card campaign to target the 45-75 age group. I found a website that give me all the names and addresses of those who contributed money in 2006 in any state.
What I need now is a database of just registared voters, regardless if they gave to a campaign or not.
Invest in Liberty, one Apartment deal at a time with me. Get a check each month as a passive investor, just ask me how.
there are some land lines out there
I have several Ron Paul supporters in my group who have them. I have one too. None of us has ever been polled in this election cycle, though....
