How To Vote policy summary statistics
Other statistics pages: By result - By section - By question - By key policies

On this page you can find out which answers/policies are most frequently chosen. You can also switch to an alternative version of this page which only shows results when the 'key issue' box was ticked for a question.

The first table on this page shows how often each manifesto statement in favour of a policy or a belief was chosen as a percentage of all the people completing the site. The second table shows the same results but includes people disagreeing with a policy too - there are many results in this table, allowing a real insight into the popularity (or otherwise) of the parties' manifesto policies.

The second table differs more strongly from the first when you include the requirement that the person completing the questionnaire ticked the 'key issue' option for the relevant question - click here to see the alternative 'key issue' policy results.

The 2010 How To Vote quiz has so far been completed over 31600 times (and over 25700 times since I reset the questions set on 21st April)


This table shows you how often each answer has been chosen. This provides an indication of which particular policies are most popular. This table also tells you which policies are most important to supporters of the different parties:
