With more nuanced choices than just "yes, no, maybe"

As expected, I line up 92% with the fabulous Dr. Jill Stein, 87% with the President, and 0% with Mittens. I've got a bit in common with RockyA (70%), and not so much with RonP (6%).

Oh for crying out loud.... I was afraid of this
Mitt Romney on immigration, social, economic, domestic policy, and healthcare issues 88%
Ron Paul on immigration, economic, healthcare, and science issues 77%
Virgil Goode (who he?) on social, economic, and healthcare issues 65%
Gary Johnson (who he too?) on economic, healthcare, and science issues 53%
Barack Obama no major issues 10% - Barry must be shifting to the right on something (or I bent leftward - maybe that ban on assault weapons did it)
Rocky Anderson (he who?) no major issues 8%
Jill Stein (no idea who she) no major issues at all
You matched 46% American Voters on economic and environmental issues

Jill has run for Governor twice in Massachusetts. I've met her a couple of times, and watched her in some of the debates. She is incredibly articulate, intelligent, and thoughtful.
I probably won't vote for her, but I happily send her funds every so often and follow her campaign.

My responses evidently confused it: My "results" are a blank page.

After you get to the point in the test where it gives you the additional alternative answers, it also give you the option to write one of your own....
I almost started to do that, but I saw a disclaimer that said writing out your own answer would make the results less "accurate"...
I took that to mean that the system set up to process the responses couldn't deal with answers you composed yourself, and would therefore throw out the response in computing your score...
If that theory is correct, if a person were to write their own answer to every question, I imagine that means the results would come up empty.
