Would be interesting if I could do something similar in my home town.

Would it be possible (or legal) to just pull out a phone book and start dialing numbers?

I don't see why not. You can actually go to your county court house and request a list of registered voters (if you want to isolate your phone polling).

Gallup polls are RIGGED and therefore USELESS!
