Does it, though? If I lean a little bit left I'm going to vote left, whereas if I lean a lot left then... I'm still going to vote left (or vice versa). Granted, I might vote for a more fringe party then further I lean, but I don't think a greater divide will reflect in the number of votes particularly.

Yes, but the way i read the chart it doesn't differentiate between degrees of ideology; Just a binary "what percentage of the age group votes liberal vs conservative". So at 0 there is a 50/50 there are equally as many liberals as conservatives, but it doesn't provide any information how strong this ideological views are.
