what is this all about?

Of more than a quarter million mobile text users contacted (258,046), 16,623 users responded, representing a response factor of 6.44%. The national response average for random polls is typically between 2-3%.

Final results showed: Kerry with 57%, Bush with 26%, 14% not voting and 3% "other."

who is this UPOC network? I have never heard of them.

I have a cell phone, but never use the text messagine feature. I guess I don't count.

I don't know about a poll, but yesterday, my husband and I both got a text message telling us to vote for Bush and not for Traitor Kerry. And yes Traitor is the word they used. I had never used my text messaging but my younger son was with me and figured it out for me. We just laughed.

I think the whole cell phone story is mostly wishful thinking, in order to explain Kerry's inablilty to pull away. Of course we'll know for certain tomorrow.
