Electoral Compass

[wolven7]

Electoral Compass, where do you fall, with the candidates?
The one thing about these that bothers me the most about these kinds of things (the Washington Post had one, a couple of weeks back), is that there's no way to indicate what issues matter the most, to you, as a voter.

Also, Kucinich isn't available as a choice, and so people don't get their full range of choices.

I like this one the best I've seen three of these and this is the only one that even came close to actually encompasing my answers. thank you for posting.

Is there a way to post your results?

If so I'll post this one and the other three in my journal. I know at least one of the other three I've seen allowed for the type of "this matters" allong with your answer you are talking about.

Ooh, let me see that one. I didn't find any way to post the answers, except by screen capture.

[paosparti.livejournal.com]

I cutted and pasted. A screen capture probably would ahve been the smarter move but hey!

All three of the ones I can find postedinmy latest entry.

This put me right on top of Obama, which surprised me. I am much more liberal than he is.

In addition to your complaint about question importance, I take issue with the fact that the test is missing some of the candidates' views on certain positions (Obama on immigration, for example), which definitely skews the results.

Precisely. Incomplete, and somewhat annoying.

Probably the better bet.
