Domino's Analyzes Republican, Democratic Pizza Habits
Atlantic blogger Marc Armbinder finds some political research the folks at Domino's have done:
Republicans
- Spend more per order than other consumers
- They rely on credit cards to pay more than other consumers
- They tend to order two large pizzas at a time, and they're usually specialty pizzas
- They are more likely to order online, and more likely to pick up their orders
Democrats
- Rely on delivery more than Republicans
- Pay cash more than other consumers
- Like more variety with their orders, opting for side items, chicken and beverages more than Republicans
I'm registered as an independent, but if I analyze my own Domino's ordering habits, I'm not sure where I'd fall on this spectrum. Unlike Republicans, I never pick up from Domino's, but I do use a credit/debit card to pay, which is a GOP tell. Like the Dems, I have been known to order a chicken side at times. And, like the Republicans, I order online from Domino's.
But, for the most part, 98 percent of my pizza purchases are non-Domino's. So I'm going to say that puts me squarely in the independent camp.
