Personality Type and Political Affiliation

People who take the Personality Questionnaire have the option to provide some key demographic information about themselves, all gathered and stored entirely anonymously, that includes political affiliation (among other things). Occasionally we try to do something interesting with that data, such as you see here.

These statistics were generated from a set of 1222 people. The average age of participants was 25 years old.
