A teenager who just came of voting age, pleading for the chance to hear a presidential hopeful. A desperate parent asking for an extra ticket for her child. A lucky ticket-holder offering to give up his seats in exchange for an X-Box 360.

Re: Obama ticket frenzy
I think the poll you are referring to is the latest Gallup Poll taken between March 14-18 which ended the same day of Obama's speech on Tuesday about Rev. Wright. The next poll, on the other hand, should be a better reflection and the impact of Obama's speech had on the issue.
