Answer:

In 1911, the House of Representatives approved the Joint Resolution of Assembly 39 (House Joint Resolution 39), proposing a constitutional amendment for the direct election of the senators. However, it included a race provision (Race Rider) created to block federal intervention in cases of racial discrimination among voters. A substitute amendment created by Senator Joseph L. Bristow (R-KS) eliminated that race provision. The amendment, Joint Resolution, was adopted by the Senate, in a close vote on May 1911. More than a year later, the House accepted this change, and the amendment was sent to the states for ratification. On April 8, 1913, three-quarters of the states had ratified the proposed amendment, and it was officially included as the 17th amendment.

In a poll,why must there be a clear and accurate link between sample and population?
jeyben [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>The sample must represent the population in order to give good, clean and correct results of the poll. </u>

If the sample doesn't represent all the aspects and ideas of the population, the results will be different from the general opinion of the population, and therefore false.

This will cause the <u>incorrect conclusion</u> that can late effect the different researches and their results, but also various different processes, actions and reactions of the market, campaigns and other interactions with the population.
