2. No, and they don't call students in dorms either
The polls are probably off by >10%.

3. Sometimes accidently
In the polling center I work at at college in PA, we sometimes accidently get cell phone numbers are numbers that are unlisted. Usually they don't respond to us.

4. So youth and minorities may be underrepresented?
in polling data?

I canvas African Americans, ask me how.
