A non-scientific poll conducted from July 1-11 found that Jitterbug wireless phone owners favor McCain over Obama 62 percent to 31 percent. When the poll asked iPhone owners who they were most likely to support, Obama held a sizable lead of 87 percent to 6 percent for McCain.

Jitterbug, known for its large buttons, bright display, and a powerful loud speaker has been a popular item among senior citizens looking for wireless cell phones.

"I love it," says Eleanor Wright, 67, of Overland Park, Kans. "My husband and I only use it during emergencies. We don't have internet access or e-mail so we chose this phone. I especially like the buttons on the phone. They're large enough for me to see and press when I make a call."
