Test Your

Political Preference

VoteMatch compares your political preferences with questions and statements taken from election documents of political parties contesting the elections. You can give your views on these statements by clicking on 'agree', 'disagree', ‘neutral’ or 'don’t know'. Statements about which you have no view are not counted in determining your result. After responding to all statements, you can indicate which issues you consider of extra importance. The program will then calculate which party has opinions closest to yours, and rank the other parties in descending order.
VoteMatch.net was first launched on behalf of the European Parliament Elections 2004. The concept may apply on any parliamentary election. On this site you will find the VoteMatch Europe 2004, the German Wahl-O-Mat, the Swiss Politarena, the Bulgarian Glasovoditel and the StemWijzer, the Dutch voting test on which the method was originally developed.
