Suppose you try to conduct a presidential approval poll of 10,000 likely U.S. voters. You know that 44% of the voters are registered with the Independent party, 28% are registered with the Reform party and 23% are registered with the Green party. You are thinking about constructing a representative sample of this population but you notice the sum of the percentages is not 100. What does this mean? What could account for this?
