60000 households out of 270 million people represents .0022 % of the United States - hardly a repesentative sample.

"60000 households out of 270 million people represents .0022 % of the United States - hardly a repesentative sample."

your logic is a bit flawed, you think that each household contains only one person?

also a representative sample would be one that accurately refelcts the country at large, it could be much smaller than 60,000 and still be representative.


someone sounds like they are a pessimist

You're making the assumption that each household holds one person. More, since we don't know the relevant data of the poll, we cannot judge whether the poll was skewed or not (to say nothing of whether such a skew was intentional), therefore, we cannot confirm or deny the viability of the results.

I'm not saying what the accuracy is- I just posted the article. You want to challenge the results or data...? Then write the author.
