Elections are at the heart of our democracy. Understanding
citizens’ decisions to vote or to abstain in elections is
crucial, especially when turnout is declining. In this book, André
Blais and Jean-François Daoust provide an original and elegant
model that explains why people vote, based on four factors:
political interest, sense of civic duty, perceived importance of
the election, and ease of voting. Their findings are strongly
supported by empirical evidence from elections in five countries.
The analysis is compelling and demonstrates the power of their
model to provide a provocative and parsimonious explanation of
voter turnout in elections.
