I understand this is a joke and all, but this is about 1% of the population. I don’t know how easily Greenlanders have access to the internet and such and how this was distributed, but I actually think 1% is not a bad turnout here
Most Greenlanders have access to the internet. Although the percentage isn’t as high as most places in Europe or north America (I assume because of geography).
If the polling organizer did its job correctly and removed bias from their sampling, a beautiful law in statistics has been proven, stating that small-ish samples are representative of the whole population if it follows e.g. a normal distribution. It’s called “law of large numbers”.
That’s 1% of their population. For comparison, if you polled Spain’s 1% of population, it would have been around 470.000 people (I’m using the 47.000.000 population from memory though)
Important note: 497 participated in the poll. Still seems statistically like a good sample and am happy about the result!

Imagine how peaceful life would be if you lived somewhere so remote that the Internet couldn’t touch you.
Until the Internet elects a demagogue in the most ridiculously over-armed country on earth and arrives in an attack helicopter
well i said ALMOST, didn’t I?!
At least ist almost one percent of the total population (~57000), from which those not eligible to vote (children, foreigners) need to be substracted.
