New paper with @johnmmurph.bsky.social just conditionally accepted at @apsrjournal.bsky.social: Can people guess how majorities of each party in Congress voted on bills? Mostly yes. Can they guess how their own representatives voted on bills, above what is accounted for by party? Mostly no. 🧵

I’ve written a comment on a recent piece by @dbroockmand.bsky.social and @jkalla.bsky.social. I agree heartily that voters care about issues. But I don’t think that their particular explanation for the small effects of candidate moderation hold (much) water. 🧵 ctausanovitch.com/elusive_elit...

Do Americans' policy priorities vary by income or education? Using millions of conjoints with almost half a million respondents, @ctausanovitch.bsky.social and I show little evidence of such variance; voter priorities are very similar! Now in print at @psrm.bsky.social bit.ly/3E1DOST

🏫Do income and education shape people's priorities? ➡️Contrary to conventional wisdom, @ctausanovitch.bsky.social @derekholliday.com show that income and education are not strongly associated with differences in what people care about www.cambridge.org/core/journal... #FirstView

This paper from B&L in APSR First View responds to our study (Fowler et al. 2023). We very much appreciate the dialogue. However, we believe our results are robust to the exercise B&L have undertaken and have produced a series of analyses to support that conclusion. tinyurl.com/5a7x26e7 (1/7)

Very proud that my student @derekholliday.com has won the @apsa.bsky.social State and Local Politics Section's best dissertation award for his dissertation, The Reaches and Limits of Nationalization in U.S. Politics! Can't recommend Derek enough to departments looking to hire junior in AP!
