Who to vote for?
Which candidate should I vote for? An honest way to decide
By Fadrique Garcia Font · Reviewed on 19/10/2026
Let us be clear first: we will not tell you who to vote for. Nobody should. What we can do is help you compare your views (your own, not those of the people around you or the latest headline) with what each candidate really stands for, issue by issue.
The diagnosis
The problem with choosing by headlines
Political debate focuses on three or four controversies of the day, but a presidential programme covers dozens of areas that affect your life: your taxes, the healthcare you use, the pension you will get, the country’s security. It is perfectly possible to agree with a candidate on the issue everyone is talking about and disagree with them on almost everything else, without knowing it.
The method
A better way: compare issue by issue
-
1
Work out what matters to you. Taxes? Healthcare? Pensions? Europe? See what each candidate thinks on the 12 big issues.
-
2
Compare your positions with theirs. Our match test does it for you: 46 questions against the documented positions of 11 candidates, with a match percentage for each issue.

3
Look at the whole picture, not just the “winner”. The result shows your match with every candidate: sometimes the gap between the first and the second is two points, and that is information too.

Decide for yourself. Voting is more than matching views: people and track records count too. In the presidential election you vote for one person, in two rounds: if nobody wins more than half of the votes cast on 18 April 2027, the two candidates with the most votes (after any withdrawals) go through to the second round on 2 May. The test is a compass, not an oracle.
Check what you already believe
What if I already know who I will vote for?
Even better: check it. One of the most useful things about the test is finding out on which issues you do not agree with the candidate you planned to vote for, or which candidate you agree with more than you thought. At the end, the test asks, if you wish, which candidate you would vote for in the first round and shows you where you disagree with them. Look, for example, at what each candidate proposes question by question, or read how the test works before you start. Dates, how to vote and how the two rounds work are in the guide to the 2027 presidential election.
