I found the format of the intro a bit ambiguous Amelia. Quite frankly I looked up and down the page for a link off to the quiz before I figured it out. The term, "The quiz will present you with a number of statements... "
Could be replaced by a classical intro like "In the box below, select one of the 6 choices that best reflect your opinion of the subject in question"

I also found the box, with it's curved corners, not to look like a selection box? But more like a sort of flowchart or other illustration and that added to my momentary confusion.

Not to say the exercise wasn't good for lateral thinking purposes, I just thought it was more difficult than need be, considering it's a quiz, which is like a survey, which a lot of people myself included usually wouldn't waste time on.

Good effort on your behalf though :)

I made this in a couple days. It's probably a bit inaccurate, and I need to add more questions, but it should suffice to point yall in the right direction. There are links to party platforms (or similar pages) at the bottom.

My first-place was the Prohibition Party at 82%, second-place was the Reform Party at 72%, third-place was the Alliance Party at 71%, and fourth-place was the American Solidarity Party at 67%.

Alliance: 70% A centrist party that supports term limits and rejects idealism.

American Solidarity: 66% A Christian democratic party with right-wing social stances and left-wing economic stances.

Constitution: 50% A more conservative version of the Republican party, being solidly right-wing on every issue.

Green: 59% A socialist party focused around environmentalism. It takes a left-wing to far-left stance on every issue.

Libertarian: 58% Supports strong individual freedoms, a limited government, the free market, and free trade.

Prohibition: 62% Focused around the prohibition of intoxicaing liquors. It tends to be right-wing socially, and center-left economically.

Reform: 71% A centrist party focused around monetary and political reform. It takes no stances on social issues.

Socialism and Liberation: 55% A communist party that believes Capitalism is the root of all our problems, and that Socialism is the solution.

These are tough because so many of the questions aren't things I can answer in one word. Little surprised I popped up slightly more green than libertarian. On a traditional checklist level, maybe, but with issues at the forefront of the political discussion today (free speech, etc), I'd imagine I'm far more libertarian.

Don't mind the small gaps, it's just a technical difference. I'd assume the margin of error is somewhere around five to ten percent; 59% and 58% are functionally identical.

Sorry for the super late reply; didn't have internet.

Ouch.

Comcast discontinued the product I was using in December, so I feel your pain.
