?:abstract
  • From the second federal election in 1953 up to now and most likely after the forthcoming electoral reform voters have two votes in federal elections in Germany and hence the possibility to cast a so called straight or a split-ticket. Reasons for split-ticket voting have been discussed over nearly sixty years in Germany without solving the riddle why people split their votes. In democracies people use their votes to influence the political and personal composition of parliaments. Under this perspective several reasons why voters may split their tickets in Germany are discussed. The theoretical discussion shows that motives including mechanisms of the rule to change the composition of the Bundestag are quite demanding and expected to be not common. This is supported by first empirical hints: Whatever makes voters split, for the majority it is not the electoral system. (xsd:string)
