Gamba: Munoz claims that the Southwest Hopeville Neighbors Association overwhelmingly opposes the new water system, citing this as evidence of citywide opposition  The association did pass a resolution opposing the new water system, but only 25 of 350 members voted, with 10 in favor of the system  Furthermore, the 15 opposing votes represent far less than 1 percent of Hopeville' s population
One should not assume that so few votes represent the view of the majority of Hopeville' s residents
questioning a conclusion based on the results of a vote, on the grounds that people with certain views are more likely to vote
