Question
A radio show conducts a phone-in survey each morning. Listeners are asked to call in with a response to the question of the day. One morning in 2011, listeners were asked if they supported or opposed term limits for members of Congress. Remarkably, 88% of listeners that called in favored term limits. We may safely conclude that nothing, except that a great majority of those with strong enough feelings on the issue to call in are in favor of congressional term limits. We cannot generalize any of this survey's results to any larger population. there is strong evidence that the majority of Americans believe that there should be congressional term limits. there is overwhelming approval for congressional term limits among Americans generally. it is unlikely that if all Americans were asked their opinion, the results would differ from that obtained in the poll. Each person in a random sample of 2000 likely voters (as defined by a professional polling organization) was questioned about his or her political views. Of those surveyed, 1308 felt that the economy's state was the most urgent national concern.Explanation / Answer
