Your political views are written in your hands: Left-handed people tend to be left-leaning, study finds

A new study has revealed that left-handed people tend to be more left-leaning when it comes to their politics.

Political preferences are generally explained by income, age and level of education. However, our research suggests that a far more unexpected trait may also have a hand in how we vote. A survey carried out in 18 western countries has shown that left-handed people tend to identify more strongly with the political left.
