Quiz Tells You Whether Obama or Romney Matches Your Voting Stance

Do you know which presidential candidate best matches your stance on issues? 

A new website launched in March to help voters match their views with their ideal candidate.

The site is quickly gaining popularity through social media channels. According to iSideWith.com's homepage, more than 2 million people have taken the free quiz.

The quiz covers everything from social issues to foreign policy and answers can be fine tuned: You can choose general or more detailed responses, and a scale allows you to set the level of importance for each issue. Your responses are then analyzed to determine your ideal candidate, complete with a breakdown of your response matches.

Among the people who took the quiz in Massachusetts, their positions matched President Barack Obama's 60 percent of the time — more than any other candidate.

How about Mitt Romney? Just 28 percent of people from Massachusetts who took the quiz have the same views as he does on the key issues.

Take the free quiz on iSideWith.com and let us know what you think. Is the candidate it matched with you the candidate you plan to vote for?
