5. Two candidates face each other in an election. The Democratic candidate is sup- ported by 46% of the population, and the Republican candidate is supported by 54%. In other words, if you randomly chose a voter and asked them who they plan to vote for, there would be a 46% chance they would say they support the Democratic candidate. Suppose you run a poll of 8 people (randomly choose 8 people). What is the probability that less than half of them (3 or fewer) would support the Republican candidate? 5.
