A total of 502 randomly selected adults were interviewed Thursday night for this survey. Margin of sampling error is five percentage points for the overall results. The practical difficulties of doing a survey in a single night represents another potential source of error.
Had the results of the poll been reverse, with 63% of Americans against the NSA program, do you think the Washington Post would have posted this evidence of the poll's inaccuracy?
