?:abstract
  • European elections are commonly characterized as second-order elections. In contrast to national elections, both, political elites and voters are assumed to think that ‘less is at stake’: Campaigns are less intense, turnout is significantly lower, and citizens are more inclined to ‘vote with their hearts’. If there is more sincere and less strategic voting, this should be reflected in differing rationales of voting – party choice should not be based (to the same degree) on identical determinants. However, this hypothesis has not been sufficiently analyzed and – even more important – most of the knowledge is based on the analysis of aggregated data while causal explanations are located on the micro-level. This paper compares vote functions of individuals which have participated in the 2009 European Parliament Election as well as the 2009 election of the German Bundestag. Using data from the German Longitudinal Election Study (GLES), explanatory models integrating different theories of electoral behaviour are estimated for both elections. Model comparison enables a more detailed understanding and definition of European elections as second-order national elections. (xsd:string)
