You make a 95% confidence interval and find that this sample size leads to [0.457, 0.659], which means that you are 95% confident that between 45.7% and 65.9% of voters intend to vote for candidate Jones. Your boss laughs at you because this is completely useless information. Your boss orders you to increase your sample size (considerably.) Choose a new, much higher sample size and compute a new confidence interval. Don't choose my sample size or someone else's. You can assume that the sample proportion will continue to be 56% for your new sample. (Round your number of respondents that intend to vote for candidate Jones to the nearest whole number, if applicable.)
