    Ranked Choice Voting
    Ranked choice voting (RCV) is an electoral and political reform sweeping across North America, already adopted in a variety of places, including New York City, the state of Maine, and cities and towns in Minnesota, California, and Utah.In localities using RCV, voters don't cast just a single vote for one candidate, but rank candidates according to preference: first choice, second choice, third, and so forth.To be elected, a candidate must win a majority--not a plurality--of votes.Though touted by proponents as way to enhance voter satisfaction with elections, promote trust in government, and increase voter turnout, the implementation of RCV is not without its challenges. In Ranked Choice Voting, James W. Endersby and Michael J. Towle provide a comprehensive and balanced analysis of RCV systems, drawing from examples across the United States to evaluate how they function.Using a wealth of data from observed elections outcomes to election theory, from political history to interviews with advocates and election administrators, the authors detail the history, strengths, and weaknesses of RCV and preferential voting more generally.Broad-ranging, even-handed, and evidence-based, this authoritative overview of an increasingly popular format for democratic elections in the US will appeal to anyone interested in electoral reform and American democracy more generally.

  • Learning by Voting : Sequential Choices in Presidential Primaries and Other Elections
    Learning by Voting : Sequential Choices in Presidential Primaries and Other Elections
    The presidential primary season used to be a long sequence of elections.In recent years many states have moved their presidential primaries earlier in the year in the belief that this increases their influence over the choice of presidential nominees.Similarly, in the past most voters have gone to a polling place and voted on election day.Now an increasing number of voters are not voting on election day but are using mail-in or absentee ballots to vote, often weeks before other voters. Does the movement to a large number of early presidential primaries reduce the ability of voters to learn about the candidates?Do voters who vote early miss important information by not following the entire campaign, or are they, as some argue, more partisan?In a unique study Rebecca B. Morton and Kenneth C. Williams investigate the impact these changes have on the choices voters make.The authors combine a formal, theoretical model to derive hypotheses with experiments, elections conducted in labs, to test the hypotheses. Their analysis finds that sequence in voting does matter.In simultaneous voting elections well-known candidates are more likely to win, even if that candidate is the first preference of only a minority of the voters and would be defeated by another candidate, if that candidate were better known.These results support the concerns of policy makers that front-loaded primaries prevent voters from learning during the primary process.The authors also find evidence that in sequential elections those who vote on election day have the benefit of information received throughout the whole course of the campaign, thus supporting concerns with mail-in ballots and other early balloting procedures. This book will interest scholars interested in elections, the design of electoral systems, and voting behavior as well as the use of formal modeling and experiments in the study of politics.It is written in a manner that can be easily read by those in the public concerned with presidential elections and voting.

  • Negative Voting in Comparative Perspective
    Negative Voting in Comparative Perspective
    Why do some people conceive their vote choices as mostly against, rather than for a given party/candidate?Who are these negative voters? What macro-level conditions favor the development of negative voting?This volume provides answers to these questions through the first comparative assessment of negative voting in contemporary democracies.It presents a composite theoretical framework for the analysis of negative voting and tests it extensively on originally collected survey data from Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United States.Examining negative voting as a possible behavioral consequence of affective polarization and negative partisanship, this study sheds light on the electoral implications of increasingly antagonistic attitudes among the electorate.
