"Where the guns are"

The reason I am posting this is that political identity is included. 
A question for candidates for non-partisan races often comes back to identifying candidates to a party, anyway.
Gun ownership is polarizing enough to drive people to be frank about their party affiliation.
To this point, I direct you to these two paragraphs:

Americans with a gun at home also differ politically from other adults. Republicans are twice as likely as Democrats to be members of a gun-owning household. Political independents also are more likely than Democrats to have a firearm in their homes.
Please read the article for more interesting information, and the entire study if you have an interest in the specific topic of gun ownership in America.
But on other dimensions tested in the survey, those with a gun at home differ little from other Americans. For example, they are as focused on health and fitness as those in non-gun owning households and are about equally likely to say they think of themselves as compassionate or as a trusting person.

I encourage you to ready the entire article, and the study.

* Does your candidate view themselves as a Republican, Independent, Democrat? 

* Tea Party and Socialist Party charts would probably require an undefined 4th dimension; political space takes on quantum political dynamics where political positions bend back on themselves, overlapping, self-conflicting, and in parts completely non-existent to each other's position, depending on the topic, all at the same time and none of the time.
Bring a towel.
