In 1936, the newsmagazine literary digest obtained the opinions of over two million americans regarding the presidential candidates prior to the election. among the more than 2 million returns, alf landon won by an overwhelming majority over franklin d. roosevelt. a few weeks later, roosevelt won the real election by a landslide. the results of the survey were not valid due to:

The selection process for the names on the list and the number of people that, in fact, answered the poll.

Explanation:

The presidential election of 1936 pitted Alfred Landon,  the Republican governor of Kansas, against the incumbent President, Franklin D. Roosevelt.

For the 1936 election, the Literary Digest prediction was that Landon would get 57% of the vote against Roosevelt's 43%.

The first major problem with the poll was in the selection process for the names on the mailing list, which were taken from telephone directories, club membership lists, lists of magazine subscibers, etc.

Such a list was guaranteed to be slanted toward middle- and upper-class voters, and by default to exclude lower-income voters.

The second problem with the Literary Digest poll was that out of the 10 million people whose names were on the original mailing list, only about 2.4 million responded to the survey.

the incas have many rituals, cannibalism was always a very ritual thing, which was normally tied to sacrifices, warfare, death, and regeneration.

  the capac raymi was one of the most important ceremonies. it occurred around the summer solstice and was when they worshiped their sun god, also known as inti.

  the capacocho was another one of their most important ceremonies. it was when many children where selected to start their training, and these children where destined to become sacrificial blessings to their sun god, inti. being chosen for this ritual was a blessing.

  the eight day feast was a feast that lasted 8 days and, each day, the day began with a chanting at dawn. a follow up song at noon. which ended with complete silence at the end of the day. on this day, inca royalty was always dressed in silver and gold laced clothing.

  the combing of the hair was the most important ritual to young girls. this ritual was known as the coming of age ceremony, but only the most beautiful girls where chosen. in this ceremony, the girls chose their new name and where chosen as either brides, or princesses of rulers.
