This is a center-right country and with 70% of those polled saying the country is headed in the wrong direction, it looks like it's becoming more to the right. Definitely a good thing!

This forum leans VERY far to the right, no question.

And lol, the far right still thinks the far right is too far left. Oy!!!

But this poll just proved this incorrect.

More people self-identified as leaning to the left than the right. The poll clearly shows that this forum leans heavily to the left...

Not really, the poll shows that posters taking part in this poll lean toward the left.

Are you really suggesting that a larger proportion of liberals took this poll than conservatives?

Yes, because they are not happy with the right-wing dominance on this forum as whole

There is not much I can say if you choose to embrace your personal opinion instead of the only actual factual data we have. Why is it that liberals on this board tend to ignore facts like this?

What I said doesn't contradict what you said. I just narrowed it down from this forum to this thread... In this thread there are more liberals than conservatives, yes, but that doesn't necessarily apply to the politics forum as such. There are no reliable statistics on that afaik.
