Why do the graphs show different results?
In some cases, users will appear to be more aligned with one party on the two-dimensional grid and a different party on one or both of the bar graphs. This is a normal and expected result. These three graphs are designed to provide three different ways for users to interpret their results. The two-dimensional grid measures where users are situated in a general two dimensional political system. The parties bar graph measures how much you agree with the particular propositions included in the questionnaire. The leaders bar graph measures your overall evaluation of the leaders. The two-dimensional grid and the parties bar graph use the same responses to measure different things. The bar graph provides an indication of how much a user agrees with each on the specific propositions addressed in the questionnaire. The two-dimensional grid is an effort to represent the political landscape, or the ideological space in which voters and candidates are situated. The leaders bar graph uses only the responses to the three questions that were asked about the leaders to determine results. The multiple measures reflect the practical reality that a person may agree with certain policies of one party but feel more aligned with the general values of the leader of another. How an individual reconciles these competing perspectives is entirely up to him or her.

NZF 58%

How can I have over 58% support for NZF!? I wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire.

The Marriage Equality Bill (which essentially changed the definition of marriage) was introduced by a Labour MP. Key had nothing to do with it. His party has also been implicated recently in using top secret SIS documents for political attacks against National's opponent (not of John Key's doing but his subordinates and secretaries).
