    That’s again not how sampling bias works. If you called these people and asked what their favorite color was, you wouldn’t have an unrepresentative sample. It’s only if your sample is itself biased toward a response. Very small samples might have larger error bars, but they aren’t inherently unrepresentative unless the method of sampling is corelated with a response.
