?:abstract
  • In this paper,we utilize CSES data to study whether lack of congruence between individual citizens’ideological self-¬-placement and the viable party options discourages voter turnout. We additionally examine under which conditions lack of congruence produces abstention. We conceive congruence from the perspective of the individual citizen and operationalize it as the distance between her own ideological position on the left-¬-right issue dimension and that of the closest among parties obtaining parliamentary representation. The main finding of the present study is that ideological congruence seems to matter for turnout: more specifically, lack of congruence decreases voter turnout and the effect is stronger in proportional systems than in majoritarian ones.
