How many of you have actually been polled?
I'm still waiting, have been registered for years, and no one has called me at all, ever. I live in Texas; could that be the reason? But am from NY and have lived in other states. I feel so left out and just WISH someone would call so I could share my 2 cents.

1. I've been robo-called by the Naderites, and human-called
by the Democrats.

No media polls, far as I can tell.

I'm in WI.

3. Why share you're 2 cents with some media conglomerate?
Share it here where someone / we, care.

7. My fiancee
was just polled yesterday, she didn't say who it was.

2 questions: What is the most imp. issue, and who are you voting for?

She was previously polled by our local NBC affiliate.

Me, nothing. But then, I work 2 jobs, so I'm not around much, and since most of the phone calls are for her, she usually answers the phone even when I'm home. :D

10. Zogby on-line too..
Several times this cycle. Also was Zogbied on a purely marketing survey about cage free eggs the other day. I was phoned once during 2000 campaign...there was no real opportunity to give my "two cents" because the pollster was so tightly scripted. Nevertheless, I felt good to cast a voice for Gore then.

12. Twice by Zogby
& once by a PA pollster. Made the Zogby pollster laugh because I rated Bush using negative numbers..........I kept asking........"Don't you have anything lower than ZERO?"

14. I've been polled maybe six times in the past couple of months...
which is especially odd since I don't answer the phone about 75% of the time.

(four presidential polls, two on local races)

17. Once...By Quinnipiac

Interestingly....

1. We have only a land line.

2. I have voted in every election for the past 20+ years since I was 18. So whatever criteria, Quinnipiac used to determine a sample pool, I would fall into it.

I read Bush for the worthless piece of shit he is; but, when I hung up, I confess to have felt a little paranoid having been so ruthlessly honest.

Should I ever be polled again, I doubt I would respond one way or the other. I don't trust this government, the media or the polls.
