Much learning out of California, in SurveyUSA's latest pre-election tracking poll conducted for KABC-TV Los Angeles, KPIX-TV San Francisco, KGTV-TV San Diego, and KFSN-TV Fresno. United States Senator Barbara Boxer, Democrat, nominally trails Republican incumbent Carly Fiorina among California likely voters interviewed on their home telephones, but, among voters who do not have a home telephone, and who were interviewed by SurveyUSA on their cellphone, Boxer leads 2:1. When the two groups are proportionally blended, SurveyUSA pegs it as Boxer 46%, Fiorina 44%, very much within the survey's theoretical margin of sampling error, and still too close to call, but indicative of how important voters without home phones are if Boxer is to hold her Senate seat, and, as fate may have it, if Democrats are to keep majority control of the United States Senate.

I just got polled as part of the paid survey taking thing I participate in (hey.. it pays for more ammo..) Their polling put Jerry Brown at 57% and Whitman at 43%, according to the information in the questions. they then asked what % likelihood was that I’d vote for a particular candidate... is that a push-poll technique? Trying to get people to hop on the bandwagon?
It's "GOTV" which means "Get Out The Vote".
