Who to Vote for President?

Posted in GHDC Blog, Special Events & Honors at 4:57 pm by M Beauregard

While there are many different choices of polls to gauge candidates by, this particular online questionnaire is the best because it links your values and opinions to those of the candidates anonymously. 
 
This is an issues driven questionnaire with candidate values and qualities added to the mix.  There are over 2 dozen candidates from both parties (announced or possible) that are included in this survey.  You will not know the names of the candidates on the list until you have submitted your response.

Perhaps, it is worth your time to see where the candidates "RANK" on your list of political priorities based on issues and values.   You may be surprised who thinks as you do, but you are unaware of it.
 
It only takes a few minutes of your time to respond.
