Politopia Responses for Presidential Candidates

We have taken the Politopia quiz as if we were each presidential candidate listed on the survey, and recorded the responses below. To determine the likely responses for each presidential candidate, we searched the candidate’s websites and other sources for statements they have made about the subjects asked by each question.

In some cases, no relevant statement was available. In that case, we either attributed a response of ‘C’ to the candidate – indicating a preference for the status quo, or estimated their response based on other related position statements. A summary of the positions taken by each candidate is found in the table below. To see a related quote from the candidate on the issue, click on the response shown beneath the candidate’s name. To see the full text of the question, click on the topic in the left column of the table, or take the quiz.
