Where do you stand in
Liberian politics?

14 statements on the issues dividing Liberia right now. War crimes justice, corruption, concessions, the cost of living and values. See your alignment with the UP and the CDC.

Unity Party
Your answers most closely match the Unity Party of President Joseph Boakai. You support accountability for the civil war and for corruption, foreign investment and a market economy.
CDC
Your answers most closely match the Coalition for Democratic Change of former president George Weah. You support help with the cost of living, protecting communities from concessions and opposing what you see as political persecution.

Statements, asked twice

You take a position on sharp political and ideological statements using a six-point agreement scale. Key positions appear twice with opposite framing, once sympathetic and once critical. How much your answer shifts between the two framings becomes your framing bias score.

Alignment, not loyalty

The result shows how closely your answers match each position across all issues, not just the ones you feel strongly about. You might find you align with a party or ideology you didn't expect, or that you're genuinely split between two.

Politics in Liberia: the context of this test

Liberia is a presidential republic. The president is directly elected for six years, and the House of Representatives for six years too. The last general election was held in 2023.

The party system

Joseph Boakai of the Unity Party (UP) narrowly defeated President George Weah of the Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC) in the 2023 runoff and took office in January 2024. The two parties dominate politics, alongside many smaller parties and independents.

The divides that split voters

Justice for the civil wars, corruption, the cost of rice and fuel, jobs and the management of natural resources dominate the debate.

How it looks on the compass

Liberia's parties differ more in personalities and bases than in ideology. The UP is establishment and market-oriented, while the CDC draws on Weah's popularity among young and poorer voters.
