Hi all!

I am a Dutch student from the University of Amsterdam! I'm in the final phases of my Master 's degree in Political Science and progressing on my thesis. I am super interested in U.S. politics and the difference in stances during the elections.

To graduate, I actually NEED YOUR HELP!

I kindly ask as many of you to fill in this survey. Right now the conservative respondents are clearly in the minority and I would like to change this. So I think I'm at the right address here!
This is definitely not meant as spam or advertising for any purposes. Your contributions would just really benefit my research
The only criteria is that you are registered to vote in the US (and planning on going to).
It will take you no more than 5 minutes and you would help me out a lot!

Thanks so much for the effort,

Anouk

How much are you going to pay us?

Why would I want you to graduate from school?  Should you be busy learning a marketable skill?

I meant in my survey. Right now, about 70% of all the respondents of my survey have made known they are either moderately or extremely liberal. Therefore, I feel some more conservative perspectives on the policy issues will make my research a lot more reliable.

So I was taking my chances here :)

Liberals don't have perspective.  They're too stupid.

Conservatives usually don't do surveys or polls....waste of time since most of them are made by and for liberals.

If you are European then use statistically representative data sets like ESS or something, I can't believe your University would accept an internet survey as data for your thesis/model. Then again you are Dutch and it is modern higher education...

Hi Anouk.

I like having young people come here.  And I filled out your survey.  Had much response?

I'm somewhat curious about the Dutch, I have Dutch ancestors that go back to the 1600's.  My neighbor is a more recent descendant.  Do the Dutch still use the same naming patterns?  Adding 'son and van to names?

I took your survey. I hope you will stick around and see what conservative in the US is all about. I would suspect what you are receiving from the media available to you in The Netherlands is nowhere close to reality.

Hey! The results of this survey will form a database which will be analyzed with the statistics program SPSS. Also, my findings will mainly consist of qualitative data with the results of this survey to strengthen the arguments.
