Only1,500 people responded to the survey out of a random sample of 40,000. That is 3.75%. Stein then got 29% of 3.75% - 435 out of 40,000 who received the survey.

38,500 did not bother to respond to this push poll.

From the CAIR website:

CAIR, in collaboration with Molitical Consulting LLC, designed the
survey questions and obtained a proprietary, randomized national list
of 40,000 registered Muslim voters from 50 states, Puerto Rico, and
Military members serving overseas. The survey was distributed to
this dataset
from Sunday, August 25, to Tuesday, August 27, with 1,478
responses received, 1076 of which were verified and matched to the
national voter file.
