Default Americans Turn to Phones, Net for Politics

A new report from the Pew Internet & American Life Project finds that nearly half of all Americans have used the Internet or their phones for political activity.

The adjective most frequently associated with the American electorate in recent years might be "apathy," but a new report from the Pew Internet & American Life Project might show a political re-awakening through technology. "The Internet and the 2008 Election" finds that nearly half of all Americans—46 percent—have ised their phones or the Internet to participate in some form of political activity, whether that's getting information about a campaign or issue, sharing their views, or mobilizing others. And supporters of presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama seem to be leading the way with online political activity.
