Suppose we poll a simple random sample of n = 1000 people from the population of Iowa. This means: Person 1 is chosen at random (equally likely) from all N people in Iowa. Then person 2 is chosen at random from the remaining N 1 people. Then person 3 is chosen at random from the remaining N 2 people, etc. Or equivalently, all N I N!
