Does prepaid postage on ballot return envelopes increase voter turnout? In our new paper in @electoralstudies.bsky.social @pierre-lue.bsky.social and I analyse all Swiss municipalities (2005 to 2023) and find that the increase in turnout lags several years behind and depends on the municipal context

"Der überall diskutierte Rückgang der spezifischen Unterstützung für den jeweils amtierenden Bundesrat sollte deshalb nicht vorschnell in einen Schwund des Vertrauens in diese Institution umgedeutet werden." Wichtige Kolumne zur Unterscheidung zwischen diffuser und spezifischer Unterstützung!

(Sub)urban resentment is real, too: journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.... However, (sub)urbanites are less polarized towards ruralites. They seem to view one another as main outgroup. Nevertheless, bridging the rural-urban divide needs work of all place-based groups.
