Are you sure your views are in line with your candidates'? Link fixed.?

Here's a little "quiz" that might help you. Just choose whether you support or oppose an issue, or have no opinion on it. You might be surprised by the results. (I wasn't, but I've done Lots of research.)

This is also good for lots of other state races, not just the Presidential Election. Have fun!

That link is working for me, so hopefully it fixes it. I think everyone should take a quiz like this.

Estimates are that about 20%-27% of people are voting for candidates who do NOT share their views (mostly because they are voting based on party or propaganda).

Also, no one is going to be 100% aligned with their candidate's views. This quiz also breaks it into social and economic issues, which I find interesting.

Update:

It also tells you how your views line up to ALL the candidates - not just yours.

:)

Update 2:

I'm not saying it's 100% accurate - but it's interesting.

    It says that I'm more in tune with Hilary then Obama (63 to 50), but really, I've always preferred Obama's stances on things then those of Hilary.

    Still, with McCain, I only got 16% in common with.

    Source(s): Most in common with McKinnely, or something like that, and Moore, however, quickly followed by Hilary, Riva and Nader.

    Mine is 45% McCain, 15% Obama. I only answered the questions that I care about, everything else I left right in the middle.

    I took four different test like this one and they all said my views were closest to Cynthia McKinney. I was going to vote Obama, but probably not anymore. This one said Obama and McKinney were both 73 percent. So I don't know who I'm voting for now.

    i don't think all of a electorate perspectives could properly be completely alligned with their chosen canidate. As a voter it incredibly is our activity to sift in the process the rederick & learn as much as we are able to approximately each and each canidate and from there be certain what subjects are maximum extreme to us then vote for the guy you experience will proper handle those subjects. i'm an Obama supporter.

    That test is misleading at best.

    Example: they ask this question "Require companies to hire more women & minorities"

    And they base that off of asking the candidates if they support equal pay for equal work.

    Like I said...misleading at best...all out false at worst.
