>>Those with cellphone-only who I know are mostly lower-income, younger and likely to vote for left-wing/environmental, but that's New Zealand and maybe it's different there. Probably not all that much. But registering to vote is a hassle, and actually showing up and waiting to vote is a drag. If you work, you have to do it early in the morning, or after work. And around here you have to fight traffic, find a parking place, and wait in line. So, will they vote? My mother, who is 72, never voted in her life. Her entire life. I printed out the voter registration form and an envelope, because she said she wanted to vote for Bush, so she's finally registered. And I will personally drive her to her polling place so she can vote.
