      Assuming they know how to run a poll, that should be a representative sample

        Assuming they know how to run a poll,

        Why would you assume differently?

        that should be a representative sample

        It it’s, 1000 is literally the standard.

        Don’t act like a trumpet and only believe reality when it matches your opinion. Statistical analysis is still science, and rather than make up excuses to ignore metrics, we should work on changing people’s minds and the metrics will reflect that

        Don’t just stomp your feet and say “nuh uh”
