This means that 17% of the American public are not reflected in polling data because Federal law prohibits autodialing devices to be used on cell phone numbers. I wonder if the data from this survey could be combined with existing polling data to give a more accurate picture of the state of the race?

I wonder if the campaigns compensate for this with their internal polling.

The cellphone polling issue seems to come up every election — someone points it out — and yet it never seems to make much of a difference in the end. But yes, perhaps this is the year that those cell-only college kids actually show up and vote (ha!).

They’re more likely to do so for Obama than for Kerry or Gore, I’d say.
