The correct answer is:
**(Choice A)** The poll received a representative sample of 1,850 respondents.
This choice supports the credibility of the poll result because a representative sample ensures that the results reflect the views of the broader population. The size of 1,850 respondents is also substantial enough to potentially yield reliable data. In contrast, the other choices indicate potential biases or limitations that could undermine the credibility of the poll.
