Your political affiliation can be a personal preference, a deeply-held loyalty, a shifting intellectual construct and a partisan ideology all at once. We want to know if you decided to switch party allegiance in the past four years.

Please use the form below to tell us whether four years under President Obama have changed your views. We'll report back with the results soon.
