I've seen people say the cell phone market is just the affluent. But, some people with low incomes actually prefer cell phones. (And, sometimes their home phone companies help them make that decision by turning their phones off.) I await seeing how close projections match reality. Bryan, it is okay to have projections. But, we should not put too much faith in them. The margin of error is too significant in a race this close. 95213@blogcritics.org Tue, 2 Nov 2004 10:19:59 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/11/02/054010.php#comment-95207 See, I don't want to know tonight because news organizations are going to rush to judgement. I mean, we might have 10,000 military ballots from overseas. Don't theirs count? If this election IS as close as they say, then every vote does count, and that includes military. I would rather them take their time over the next week and get an accurate number and not some incident where news organizations jump to their conclusion. 95207@blogcritics.org Tue, 2 Nov 2004 09:54:43 EST
