I want you to think about what it
is that most attracted you to ……..
party. Some people are attracted
mainly by the policies of the party,
some by the leaders of the party
and some because they identify
with the party as a whole. If you
had a total of ten points to
allocate according to how
important each of these was to
you, how many points would you
allocate to the leaders of the party
you intend voting for, how many
to its policies, and how many to
the party as a whole? Please bear
in mind that the total of all your
points should add up to ten.
