Below are the results of a cluster analysis of VoteHelp.org data which I used to identify subgroups within the traditional liberal and conservative dimensions. The groups identified were:
- Social issue liberals (cluster 1 in excel sheet)
- Environment & education liberals (cluster 2 in excel sheet)
- Law and order conservatives (cluster 3 in excel sheet)
- Social issue conservatives (cluster 4 in excel sheet)
You can read a draft of the paper, the presentation, and an excel sheet of results by cluster using the below links.
