Do you consider yourself a populist voter?

[Gustaf]

Actually, thinking it over again, I'm slightly more of a populist voter. But it depends on the office and the situation. In a time of war or when electing, say, the US president I'd be more non-populist. If electing a Swedish MP in peacetime I lean more populist, because it matters less.

[??????????]

Type 1 ("populist")
* Enjoys the idea of a new group that knocks sense into the establishment (not necessarily meaning not a loyal party member)
* Tends to assume politicians are guilty (of incompetence, greed, insincerity, etc.) before innocent
* Believes that we need more common-man candidates
* Tends to support candidates who run fiery, aggressive campaigns
* Believes that politicians should justify their existences, or will give strong initial preference to their opponent

Type 2 ("non-populist")
* May not love the establishment, but tends to be wary of sudden efforts to topple it
* Believes that politicians, while largely flawed and marred by bureaucracy, sometimes get too much flack
* Is wary of candidates purporting to be "just like you"
* Tends to support candidates with greater credentials, even if the opponent is more personable and charismatic or has fresher ideas
* Tends to vote for incumbents unless the opposition can give convincing reason to rid of them

Well, I guess option 1 is the accurate answer here.
