A researcher sends out a survey questionnaire to 200,000 people living in California, asking them to report how satisfied they are with their local political representatives.

Group of answer choices yes, as long as the 200,000 people were randomly sampled from the larger population of Californians Yes, regardless of sampling technique Probably not, people who respond to the survey may be different than people who do not respond to the survey
