This is the original - and still the best - test. I thought I'd do it again because of the upcoming NZ elections. I'll be voting Green for my party vote, and I'll see what the candidates look like for my "electorate" (you get two votes in NZ - one for the party you support, and one for the candidate of the electorate in which you live. My electorate for the purposes of overseas voting is the one I last lived in.)

Political compass )
No surprises, nor much change, just my usual anarchistic tendencies (although leaning away from "free market" economic policies - maybe after the (r)evolution!) And, hey, I'm still propping up the System by actually voting. It's just depressing how all the political leaders in the world are firmly in the Right-Authoritarian quadrant (well, except for Mugabe and his policy of  "nationalising" the land for his bully-boys).

If I was in the UK, I'd be voting Lib Dems with trepidation (since they don't have any proportional voting system over there, ack!), although I think New Labour are possibly worse than the Conservatives at present (or maybe not - the Tories would have been even more disgusting over their "anti-terrorism measures", I'm sure). Here I'd vote Green as well (yes, yes, I'm thinking about Aussie citizenship, mainly so I can vote), in the main, now that I essentially understand the preferential voting system. I wouldn't have the faintest clue who I'd vote for in the US, since there is little difference to discern in Terrible Two's policies, and the third parties are a joke. Given the fact the Republicans are currently run by a bunch of religious nutcases and Big Business, and the Dems social policies are marginally better, and maybe Big Business hasn't paid them quite so much money, it might have to be the Dems. God.
