Who should you vote for? Heed Vote Chooser! 


Check out the "Vote Chooser" tool. It worked very well for me, lining up the candidates according to my policy preferences in almost precisely the order that I would vote for them as president.

Now, now Garrett - get a hold of yourself man! It could be worse - my second choice was Huckabee.

I checked out this site and found that some of the answers are not honest representations of the candidates positions so I'm not sure how helpful this tool is. There appears to be some cherry picking going on.

Yep, I'm a liberal.

Try this one. It prioritizes how important particular issues are to you and then asks you questions based on that. It was pretty accurate in my case.

Glassbooth worked far better for me as well.

Bizarre. I consider myself a character, not an issue voter.

While the original site gave me Hillary and Rudy and McCain tied for my first place, glassbooth gave me McCain followed by Huckabee :)

So at least they put McCain in my top few, but I'm guessing based on that 3-way tie that I'm pretty off the standard path.
