so, i got an email out.

based solely on the population, 1300 people sampled in a population of nine million should create a margin of error of 2-4%, depending on the preferred confidence interval, if the sampling is truly random. so, if they pull 21% out of the numbers then the upper bound is around 25%.

but, i'm making a lot of assumptions that would be clarified in a typical report.
