Dominant Hand vs. Political Preference

By Matt Weber

The Purpose of this Study

     The purpose of my study is to see if there is a correlation between which hand dominant and political preference. Where do left/right handed people stand on the political spectrum. Are they more left (liberal) than right (conservative)? Also, are right handed people more right (conservative) than left (liberal)? I thought about this relationship when I was reading the news online and the strict liberals were referred to as the “far left.” I am trying to show that there is a correlation between one’s dominant hand and political preference. This would mean that lefties tend to be more liberal and righties tend to be more conservative.
