Saw a statistic about scientists’ political party in the US: 6% are republican, 32% independent, and 55% republicans. (Pew Research Center, but very dated (2009)) What are the independents. Are they classical liberals or socialists? Independent is not sufficient when the percent is so high!

The same dated study broke down as 9% conservative 35% moderate 52% liberal and 14% very liberal. This is better, but still. I’d like more specific breakdowns. Also, can a researcher do a proper polling study now? I’m very curious. Current data seems to be specific institutions or donation based.
