New research spotlight! 📢❗🚨

Check out this paper by Michael Herron & @electionsmith.bsky.social on disability and voter turnout. Drawing on Florida administrative data, they find that voters needing assistance are more likely to both abstain and have their postal ballots rejected.

👉Check out our new publication in @electoralstudies.bsky.social (with Toth & Chytilek)! Using eye-tracking and surveys, we test whether framing political issues in moral terms attracts more attention than presenting them with facts. Surprisingly, facts hold a slight advantage doi.org/10.1016/j.el...

🚨 New publication alert! 🚨
Why do some people keep voting throughout their lives while others drop out? And how do authoritarian elections - even uncompetitive ones- shape citizens’ habits?
Ksenia Northmore-Ball and I tackle these questions in my new paper, now out in @electoralstudies.bsky.social.

My experiment on election outcomes, partisan identity & affective polarization is now out in @electoralstudies.bsky.social.

Puzzle: From a group ID lens, outcomes could shift both perceived out-party threat & in-group status → ambivalent predictions for affective polarization.

‪Can one further improve the common (face-saving) turnout question in election surveys? Our new publication
@electoralstudies.bsky.social tested this w three alternative wordings & validated turnout data. Short answer is that the current version works already pretty good!

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
