It is important for democracy to realise the right decision about which party to vote for in an election. However, it is not easy to compare the principles of different parties. In response to such situation, the services called "vote matching" have been provided. These services provide candidates of political parties that match to users who answer some questions. In this study, we analysed the data of such vote matching services. From the vote matching data, we analysed the characteristics of voters and their behavioural patterns in response to the results of vote matching.
