        What does the margin of error of a poll have to do with the outcome of an election? Like, I definitely think he’s got zero political mandate for anything because he barely won (and I think he only even got that because the Democratic party has a bunch of their voters stay home), but I am still pretty convinced that Trump did in fact win the election.

          Don’t know much about statistics I’m guessing. That’s more than enough of a sample size to represent a population. That’s why there’s a margin of error in polls.
