Cell Phones Don’t Get Polled

Posted Sep 29, 2004, 1:30 PM ET by Mike Outmesguine

A growing concern for political polling institutions is those new-school cellphone users that are dropping their old landline accounts. At this time, only 3 percent of Americans use a cell phone as their exclusive voice line. But the number is growing, and demographics are changing. For example, younger people are more likely to drop landlines for cellphones (why pay for two phone numbers?) By 2009, 15% of adults may not have landlines, meaning 1 in 7 adults would not be polled at all by telephone.

They forgot old wired hippies; average age 60, internet 75%, cell phone zero.
The ones who know how to escape from the electronic leash.

Just another beautiful day in paradise.
