Does information affect vote choice in open-list PR systems? @phanxi_, @DaeublerT and I show survey-experimentally how voters use information on environmental policy positions of candidates to align voting with own standpoints. #openaccess@ElectoralStdies https://t.co/gHCFfSVMQj
@ucdpolitics The findings provide new insights into the reactions of mainstream parties to challengers. They may also explain why mainstream parties accommodate, while previous work suggests it does not help them electorally. Electoral threat could be an omitted variable here. (3/3)
@ucdpolitics Using propensity-to-vote data, the analysis shows that mainstream parties (MSP) become more immigration-skeptic when there is a higher threat of losing voters to the radical right (RRP), but not when there is more opportunity to win voters back from these parties. (2/3)

… und wer die Wahl zwischen geschlossenen Einer-Parteilisten im Wahlkreis mit einer Personenwahl verwechselt, nur weil sie in unserem Wahlrecht „Personalisierung“ genannt wird, glaubt wohl auch das Zitronenfalter wirklich Zitronen falten 🙈🙋♂️
@mq86mq@Mandaterechner @Arne_JJ Im jetzigen bayerischen System haben es reine Listenkandidierende aber auch schwer gegen unterlegene Direktkandidierende, da letztere in den Stimmkreisen keine innerparteiliche Konkurrenz haben.
@mq86mq@Mandaterechner @Arne_JJ Gut, aber man kann sich dann auch fragen: Möchte man zwingend so kleine Wahlkreise (gepaart mit einer innerparteilichen Allokation nach lokalem Ergebnis), oder dürfen alle zwischen allen Kandidierenden auf einer z.B. landesweiten offenen Liste auswählen?
