So you endorse sortition for large bodies, but not for an executive or a small committee? What's a reasonable threshold?

- AnimalMuppet 1y agoI think that's right. The point of sortition is for the body to look (statistically) like the wider public. The smaller the number of people in the body, the more likely it is that they are not representative. I'm sure statisticians could give a better answer than I can about where the line should be. I think it is basically a statistical question. But for a one-person executive? No, probably not a good idea.
