Answer

1,000 Arkansans randomly selected for a phone interview

Explain

To achieve a representative sample, the researcher needs to select participants that reflect the broader population of Arkansas. Random selection of 1,000 Arkansans for a phone interview is the closest to a representative sample, as it includes a diverse cross-section of the population.
