[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 2275440, member: 5151"] Sample size of 21 posters in a single thread vs sample size of 1,374/1,982 posters? Plus your math on your own sample is wrong. 1 "harshly opposed" = 4.76% 1 "opposed" = 4.76% 11 "indifferent" = 52.38% 8 "pro" = 38.10% (Total may not equal 100% due to rounding. Also note that only 2 of the 15 from the last 30 days in my sample have posted in this thread so far.) Even using your numbers with correct math (which is to your benefit), only 9.52% are "opposed" to open carry, but keep in mind that is limited to a single thread that spans a very insignificant amount of time. Still, 9.52% is hardly a significant amount. And it's definitely not a large enough subset of a group to paint an entire group and organization as being against open carry. Based on logins within the last 30 days and assuming a 95% confidence level, your 9.52% is within the 12.51% margin of error, which means even though you found 9.52% of a sample of 21 posters was "opposed", if the sample had been of the active users within past 30 days it could still be statistically 0%. Even if we use logins since this thread started, you still have a 12.43% margin of error. Thread views gets you a margin of error of 12.49%. Total posts leading up to yours is still a margin of error of 10.89%. My first sample of 1,374 with a 95% confidence level yields a margin of error of 0.38%. My second 90 day sample with a 95% confidence level yields a margin of error of 0.32% So, which polling company do I need to avoid hiring? [/QUOTE]
