Minnesota Public Radio presents the Select a Candidate quiz:
By answering a series of questions about major issues, you can quickly learn which candidates are most closely aligned with your views. You’ll be able to learn more about each candidate, hear his/her positions on many issues, and find out how your results compare with those of others who take the survey.
Q: Does “Select a Candidate” tell me who to vote for?
A: Absolutely not. Its main purpose is to introduce you to the candidates who are running and their positions on the issues.
I took the quiz, and these were the results I got back for the main candidates:
- Fred Thompson - 26 points
- Mitt Romney - 21 points
- John McCain - 20 points
- Mike Huckabee - 18 points
- Rudy Guiliani - 15 points
- Barack Obama - 4 points
- John Edwards - 2 points
- Hillary Clinton - 1 point
There is also a simplified version of the quiz at WQAD that has eleven questions instead of fifteen. I took the WQAD quiz too, and it gave me back the same candidates in the same order but with a different scoring system.
I have been leaning towards either Thompson or Romney for the Republican candidate, so it is interesting that they came out as the top two on my quiz. I guess this also means that if it comes down to Fred Thompson versus Hillary Clinton in 2008, now I know who to vote for!

Sharon just told me about this quiz, so I took it. It’s still a valid link. Well, I always knew that I’m in a political category all by myself - fiscally liberal, socially conservative, so I didn’t learn anything new.
My top 2 candidates were…
Dennis Kucinich - 10
Ron Paul - 10
Sigh - no perfect match for me.
