Question

The Party of Nonvoters From past elections, nonvoters are those who are either not registered to vote or are considered unlikely to vote in an upcoming election. Nonvoters are very different demographically from likely voters.

Nonvoters are less affluent and less educated. Nearly half of nonvoters (46%) have family incomes less than $30,000, compared with 19% of likely voters. Most nonvoters (54%) have not attended college; 72% of likely voters have completed at least some college (Source: Pew Research Center, October, 2014, "The Party of Nonvoters"). Suppose you interview 9 people who are considered nonvoters. Round answers to 4 decimal places.
