The level of measurement describes the relationship among these three values. In this case‚ we simply are using the numbers as shorter placeholders for the lengthier text terms. We don’t assume that higher values mean "more" of something and lower numbers signify "less". We don’t assume the the value of 2 means that democrats are twice something that republicans
