I fully concur on the weirdness

As there are headcounts offering numbers deemed stable enough for statistic reasoning, why were not at least simple demographic descriptions tried? Asking for Zip code of home adress and perhaps last vote in election for Bundestag would not cost too much, given that everybody does their own statistics on election time and this phenomenon is really heavy in the press: why not try to find at least partially data above the anecdotal level ?

As I am certain less then 10% disabled their cell phones on purpose when participating, only some organizations have a clear picture of the normal location of those showing up.
