The population being studied is the 357 representatives that have 6 years or less of service in the House. This is the entire group the analyst is interested in understanding opinions from. The sample consists of the 50 representatives selected from this population. This smaller group is what the analyst uses to gauge the overall opinions of all those 6-year-or-less representatives without needing to survey every single one. By focusing on this sample, the analyst can make educated guesses about the sentiments within the larger population while saving time and resources!
