  • Religious and Social Influences on Voting in Greater Victoria*

    Religious and Social Influences on Voting in Greater Victoria*

    Religious and Social Influences on Voting in Greater Victoria* T. RENNIE WARBURTON The detailed investigation of voting behaviour by social scientists has shown that the idea that voters are informed, rational and public spirited and that they carefully weigh the pros and cons of policy before casting their ballots is invalid and at best a means of legitimating the political theory underlying democratic elections. Not only has it been shown that large segments of the electorate are ignorant of such matters as party platforms, the party that particular candidates represent and even the identity of major party leaders, but that political behaviour is better explained as a product of social experience than as the exercise of rational choice.1 Social experience in this context is usually seen in terms of such factors as age, sex, parents' party preferences and social class, the latter being measured either by such objective indices as occupation, income or level of educational achievement or by more subjective ones such as in which social class electors place themselves. In national elec­ tions held since World War II a considerable segment of the electorate in North America, the United Kingdom and a number of continental European and Commonwealth countries, appears to have voted con­ sistently for the same party, regardless of the main issues involved. These consistent voting patterns have been directly related to various socio­ economic factors and, particularly in Canada, to religion. John Meisel, in one of the earliest Canadian analyses of electoral behaviour, reported finding a relationship between religious affiliation and voting preferences in the 1953 Federal and the 1955 Provincial * Thanks are due to David Goburn and Clyde Pope for helpful criticism of an earlier draft of this paper.
