Florida's total was followed by 6,622 in the Democratic bastion of New York, which has not been a focus of either President Bush (news - web sites) or Democratic challenger Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites) of Massachusetts in the neck-and-neck presidential race.
Common Cause, which is operating the voter alert line with a consortium of groups, said thousands of calls also were reported in the key battleground states of Pennsylvania, 5,409, Michigan, 3,831, and Ohio, 1,639.
