%T Comparative politics of strategic voting: a hierarchy of electoral systems %A Gschwend, Thomas %P 30 %D 2006 %= 2011-09-06T16:58:00Z %~ USB Köln %> https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0168-ssoar-257715 %U http://www.sowi.uni-mannheim.de/gschwend/pdf/papers/gschwend-midwest06.pdf %X "What is the impact of electoral rules on the way people make decisions in the voting booth? Institutional incentives moderate a voter’s expectation formation process and, therefore, make the frequency of strategic voters predictable across a wide range of electoral systems. I provide evidence that there is a latent dimension of propensity to cast a strategic vote following the wasted-vote logic on which various seat-allocation systems can be placed even controlling for district magnitude. Thus the variance of vote-to-seat conversion mechanisms is far more important in determining the level of strategic voting across electoral systems than previously thought."
