It may be Gallup on the line.

This may not be a religion post per se, but since we dabble in poll numbers a lot, it’s still interesting. Plus there was that little dust-up last week over evangelicals upset that only Republican voters in Iowa were asked if they were evangelicals, while Democrats were not.

At any rate, Gallup is moving toward include cell-phone users in its polling. It’s an important step because one of the loudest criticisms of polls in recent years is that they only reach people with land lines, while people who opt to go with only a cell phone are never sampled.

No word on where they’re getting the cell phone numbers (which, if you’ve tried, are nearly impossible to find) and I wonder if this is included in that federal do-not-call telemarketing list.
