Here's an example of a phone poll: http://bhday.files.wordpress.com/200...l-polling2.wav Does that sound fair to you?
In that poll too, the caller hit #6, for other. The system then registered it as a #7 and took him off the list, presumably so they dont have those pesky "other" voters messing up their polls. Of course it could just be stupidity or error on their part, but given the treatment Paul gets in the media, you can understand the conspiracy theories.
