Thanks for posting. This *fascinated* my English Learner class. And gave us an opportunity to talk about biased sampling, too!

Cool! I would be curious to see a post about some of the conclusions from that discussion.

I didn't ask them to share their voting preferences aloud; I have written responses from them about the presidential election, and Propositions 1a, 2, 8, 12, and WW. I will be putting up a display showing the aggregate response, and I'll post about that when I get a chance.

Yeah, but looking at the US numbers, Im not sure it can really be trusted as a good source. Its rather biased.

Really nifty idea though!

Which is why I say it is an interesting experiment.

ah! Pardon the misunderstanding. : ) You're quite right about that.
