I think it’s safe to assume if they didn’t respond they do not love responding to surveys.

Maybe. But if there were 10000 sent and 500 responses, that still isn’t enough information. You would need to know how many were even handled and perceived by the intended recipient.
But maybe you can work around this by canvasing in person rather than fire and forget.

It’s almost like my comment was dripping with cynicism.
