I remember voting in my first election; Bush vs. Gore in 2000. Besides the election results taking close to a month to be announced, what I remember most about voting for the first time was (especially upon reflection) being really uninformed about each individual's political stance. For most of you, this is your first election. And, even if you can't vote yet it's never too early to really investigate your beliefs measured against those running for office.
This site offers the best political quiz I have come across, for it allows you to do more than simply answer yes or no. Be sure to expand your options when answering questions, and also be sure to indicate how important each topic is to you. I took this quiz and was a bit surprised at my result. If you feel comfortable sharing, what are your results? Also, who are the other individuals listed besides Obama and Romney?, what you think their parties represent?, and why don't they get any attention?
