RB-50 Political Values Indicator

In any election year, candidates are required to fill out a survey approximately two pages in length, containing only multiple choice or Yes/No questions. The survey would contain questions such as:
Do you believe in a woman's right to choose: [Y] [N]
Would you privatize health care: [Y] [N]
What percent of the budget would you allocate towards (insert government branch here)
[0-5%] [6-10%]... etc.

Attached to each possible response is a numerical score, along with a color. A traditionally conservative response would receive a designation of "Blue," while a more Socialist response would receive a designation of "Red." In the above example, answering [Y] woman's right to choose question might get a score of 2-Red. After all scores are tallied, the value of the color with the lowest score is subtracted from the value of color with the highest score, and the overall result is given as Blue-10, or something. (This overall score might be achieved by finishing the survey with an aggregate of 30 Blue points and 20 red points.)

The scoring system is designed so that the maximum attainable value is either Blue-50 (Trent Lott), or Red-50 (Trudeau). And though this survey would have little value for voters ACTIVELY formulating opinions, it would (A): give Statistics Canada or the Census Bureau another useless project on which taxpayer money is wasted, (B): increase voter turnout by letting normally non-voting citizens to pick a candidate based on his score alone, regardless of actual policies, and (C): I could bet money on it.
