I'm 85% Green, which was my highest (I had some write-ins, which throws it off some), but that doesn't surprise me. I've known for a while that the Green Party has been pretty much in line with my views, though I do have Libertarian tendencies, which is why they came in at 73%.
I was noticing the same thing you mention here, though, and honestly it's been something I've taken note of for quite some time. Many, many people have views that line up with the Green Party, but it's often likely they don't even realize it because of how much the big two monopolize the political stage.
