Question: A New York Times news service article on a poll concerned with the opinions of Hispanics includes the following paragraph:

"The poll was conducted by telephone from July 13 to 27 with 3092 adults nationwide, 1074 of whom described themselves as Hispanic. It has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points for the entire poll and plus or minus 4 percentage points for Hispanics. Sample sizes for most Hispanic nationalities were too small to break out the results separately.

  1. Why is the margin of error larger for Hispanics than for all 3092 respondents?
  2. Why would a very small sample size prevent a responsible news organization from breaking our results for Cubans separately?
