The purpose of this project was to show if and how gender and future profession influenced political party preference. The two questions we chose to address were: 1. How many individuals voted for the Democratic Party vs. the Republican Party vs. the Independent party? 2. Did their future profession have any influence on their political party preference?
In order to answer those two questions, we had to do extensive research. We established that if we had to collect the data on our own, the best sampling technique would be to question ten women and ten men that are classified as high school seniors and/or college students outside of ballots and during different campaigns. The three main issues we came across by collecting data this way was: there were more female voters than male voters, voters that are not sure about their future endeavors, and our technique would not apply to voters are not currently in school.

We determined that the majority of Future Professions that voted for the Democratic Party were Science, Medicine, Business, Architecture, and Program/Tech.

The data also showed that the majority of Future Professions that voted for the Independent Party were Counseling, Law, Journalism, Business, Accounting, Education, and Undecided. We demonstrated the mode in the graphs by indicating the number per Future Profession that occurred most
