97% Clinton and Stein, 23% Trump.
But I think the US also needs a two-step presidential election, where unless one candidate gets more than 50% of the votes in the first round, there is a second round where the two candidates that get the most votes come back to see which one has the most support. That means that also candidates from parties that are not so big have a chance. As it is now, voting for them means effectively throwing your vote away. But changing that means having people actively making changes to the very system that got them and their party to the position of power they have.

Candidates you side with...
98% Jill Stein on economic, social, domestic policy, immigration, foreign policy, environmental, healthcare, criminal, education, and electoral issues.
94% Hillary Clinton on economic, social, domestic policy, immigration, foreign policy, environmental, healthcare, criminal, and electoral issues.
74% Gary Johnson on social, domestic policy, immigration, foreign policy, science, and electoral issues.
31% Donald Trump Republican on science and healthcare issues.
Never heard of Jill Stein.

I side 30& with Trump. These are the issues: Are you in favor of decriminalizing drug use? No Should the federal government increase funding of health care for low income individuals (Medicaid)? Yes
Should a photo ID be required to vote? Yes I can't imagine living without a photo ID in Sweden. I have to use it if I open a bank account, if I go abroad (passparts are not required everywhere), when I go to the hospital and the pharmacy (prescription drugs), if I want to drive a car, when I vote etc.
Should the government raise the federal minimum wage? Yes I've read that some jobs in USA are so low-paid that people need to have two jobs to support themselves
Should the government continue to fund Planned Parenthood? stats discuss Donald Trump: Yes, as long as funding is not used for abortion procedures Your similar answer: Yes Should illegal immigrants be offered in-state tuition rates at public colleges within their residing state? stats discuss Donald Trump: No, and all illegal immigrants should be deported Your barely similar answer: No, they should pay the same rate as out-of-state students

I don't anything about Jill Stein or Gary Johnson.
Some of these questions seemed very odd to me, showing that USA and Sweden are very different politically. One difference is that USA is a federal state, so I don't really know what to answer if an issue should be resolved by the federal governemet or the state.

55% Trump Jayme? Hang your head in shame Actually some of the things Trump has supported are not that awful. It's just that the awful ones truly are.
