Interactive voice response (robocall) polls make up roughly 80-90% of polling done in 2008 because newspapers cut back on expensive live-interviewer polling, and despite low response rates and not knowing who is answering, their record is not bad—largely because IVR organizations pay closer attention to weighting than traditional phone pollsters.
