Robin Hanson finds this picture
The source survey is behind a subscription firewall, so I can't tell you anymore.
Nevertheless, this is pretty striking both in the real lopsidedness, as well as the public misconception.

Another bizarro! They are talking about the Pew Center survey. Scientists do NOT characterize themselves as 56-2 liberal-conservative in that survey. There is a wide disparity in the report, but nothing like 56-2 (which simply isn't credible).
Still, there IS a wide disparity, scientists trend much more liberal than conservative.
Maybe that's something to think about. Why DON'T conservative-minded people go into science?
