Our main takeaway is that while poor voters vote less often, are less ideologically aligned with their preferred party, and see their preferred party less often in government - voting still does not seem to explain unequal representation.

It's an interesting paper because we examine whether unequal representation is caused by how low- and high-income people vote (for example ideological voting). Our findings goes against this idea, meaning that unequal representation must be caused by something else!

New paper out in @ActaPolitica where I show that acceptance of inequality separates left- and right-wing individuals in both Eastern and Western Europe, contrary to previous research. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1057/s41269-024-00332-y Polisky22 Mar 2024 12:53 +0000at://did:plc:uhbf2fxem7glh5xudw2xaydd/app.bsky.feed.post/3kobxbj42vc2ohttps://bsky.app/profile/jesperlindqvist.bsky.social/post/3kobwbphlg22yHi @profmusgrave.bsky.social could you please add me to the Polisky list?
