I can't speak for everyone, but I, for one, wasn't expecting the results I got. The poll said that, while I was in the middle (like I expected) I leaned more conservative than liberal. While I did expect to be found near the middle, I expected to lean more left than right, I thought myself more liberal than conservative.
Although, potentially, there is a possibility that it was impacted by the fact that most of my answers were "knee- jerk" reactions. I answered as my first instinct told me to, but for some questions, after I hit "next" I went into deeper thought about the question, and realized that another answer would actually have been more accurate of my opinion.
I would have gone back and changed it, but, sadly, I did not know how to. Don't judge me.
And, perhaps, like we have learned is possible, the wording of the survey may have affected my answers. While probably not extremely affected, but enough that it all stacked up, and pushed me slightly towards the conservative side.
As I read into the article, I find that in many ways, it makes more and more sense that I am firmly in the center of the political spectrum.
The center and I agree on the topics of government aid, guns, religion, preferences of political functioning, and how involved the government is in our personal affairs.
All things considered, I find myself proud to be a member of the middle. I'm not Democratic, I'm not Republican, I am moderate.
In all honesty, I think we should get our own political party, I'd vote for that candidate.
