Direct costs to the Taxpayer with the current ballpark are ALSO zero.

Oh, God, but let's not let facts get in the way!

In 2007, the Oklahoma Poll that showed Taylor with a 55% favorability rating was based on a poll size of 500, that's less than 0.1% of the reported census estimate of 384,037 for the City of Tulsa.  The sample size reflects a 0.2% sample of the estimated 215,000 registered voters in the City of Tulsa.  That poll had a margin of error of +/- 4.37 percent based on the small sample size.

I suggest you not talk about polling until you learn about statistical sampling.

I'm trying to recall, but isn't it a number around 30 participants that considered a fair sample?

It depends on how you select your sample.
