Was youth poll on Brown accurate?


Dear Sir,

Please allow me a few words on the poll by your paper to the Youth on Premier Brown. This was a poll on the feelings from 30 young people. Was the number 30 a proportionate representation of Bermuda's youth? Could an accuracy rating or inaccuracy rating be used?

It seemed from your 'Editor's note' that maybe the survey did not represent the population of Bermuda accurately. Is it true that when the most respected Polling Company of Mr. Walton Brown does their surveys they use many hundreds of people for a proportionate representation of Bermuda's population for the intended topic? Some say a poll should be done of the Opposition Leader Mr. Dunkley now. I say no to that, now anyway, as there has been so much feedback on the Premiers survey, that Mr. Dunkley's one would be too biased. If both surveys were done at the same time with more people then yes.
