The American Nonvoter
Ragsdale, Lyn (Dean of the Social Sciences and Radoslav A. Tsanoff Professor of Public Affairs and Professor of Political Science, Dean of the Social Sciences and Radoslav A. Tsanoff Professor of Public Affairs and Professor of Political Science, Rice Uni
The American Nonvoter examines how uncertainty regarding the national context influences people's decisions whether to vote or not. During times of national crisis, when uncertainty is high, voting increases; during times of stability people stay home. Using rigorous statistical tools and rich historical stories, Lyn Ragsdale and Jerrold G. Rusk show how uncertainty in the national campaign context reduces nonvoting in presidential and midterm elections from1920 to 2012.
