I know 90% of this board are Republican voters, that’s a given. How conservative are you, both economically and socially?

Me personally, I’m a northeast style Republican. I’m not very religious so that doesn’t play into it for me. Fiscally and economically conservative, but I’m socially moderate. I’m pro lgbt rights, pro marijuana, open to more pathways for legal citizenship (giving people more pathways to legal entry, etc) but I’m extremely pro life.

Economically conservative, socially libertarian. I don’t care what anyone does in their personal life as long as it doesn’t hurt me or mine.

That’s me for the most part, minus abortion.

This is me.



This where others would be placed.



Being closest to Milton Friedman is just fine by me.

Wow, thanks for the link. That's rather eye-opening, and a testament to how far left the center has moved in America.

I wonder how much those questions have changed over the last decade?

Slightly authoritarian right according to the link. Literally one box up and one box right.

Did I win, son?

I would have thought I was slightly more right than my score.

But I seldom use strongly agree or strongly disagree.

In few instances do I believe in boxing myself in. I strongly disagree with abortion. But in the case of rape.......
