  • Stubbornly Opposed: Influence of Personal Ideology in Politician's
    Stubbornly Opposed: Influence of personal ideology in politician's speeches on Same Sex Marriage Preliminary and incomplete 2020-09-17 Current Version: http://eamonmcginn.com/papers/Same_Sex_Marriage.pdf. By Eamon McGinn∗ There is an emerging consensus in the empirical literature that politicians' personal ideology play an important role in determin- ing their voting behavior (called `partial convergence'). This is in contrast to Downs' theory of political behavior which suggests con- vergence on the position of the median voter. In this paper I extend recent empirical findings on partial convergence by applying a text- as-data approach to analyse politicians' speech behavior. I analyse the debate in parliament following a recent politically charged mo- ment in Australia | a national vote on same sex marriage (SSM). I use a LASSO model to estimate the degree of support or opposi- tion to SSM in parliamentary speeches. I then measure how speech changed following the SSM vote. I find that Opposers of SSM be- came stronger in their opposition once the results of the SSM na- tional survey were released, regardless of how their electorate voted. The average Opposer increased their opposition by 0.15-0.2 on a scale of 0-1. No consistent and statistically significant change is seen in the behavior of Supporters of SSM. This result indicates that personal ideology played a more significant role in determining changes in speech than did the position of the electorate. JEL: C55, D72, D78, J12, H11 Keywords: same sex marriage, marriage equality, voting, political behavior, polarization, text-as-data ∗ McGinn: Univeristy of Technology Sydney, UTS Business School PO Box 123, Broadway, NSW 2007, Australia, [email protected]).

The funeral cortege itself comprised of some 200-300 vehicles, and was so long that, as vehicles were entering the road to Boot Hill Cemetary, vehicles were still leaving the carpark at the Catacomb Church. In fact, the event was so well attended by DCCP employees that Council was unable to open it's doors for business at either the Admin Office or the Works Depot. SAPOL provided the procession with a full police escort and even did road closures. The church service was conducted by outgoing Pastor Geoff Piggott. As many people were outside the Catcomb Church, as were able to cram inside the church itself, all listening to the service on speakers that were kindly provided. Dave was farewelled at the service by his daughter Renee, who spoke movingly of her strong bond with the incredible man that was her father. The next speaker, Andy McDougal, shared an abridged but intimate, first hand account of Dave's time in military service in Vietnam. Margaret Mackay © Pastor Geoff Piggott of the Underground Catacombe Church farewells Coober Pedy son Dave Bowman The final speaker, Michael Beelitz gave an emotional and heartfelt account of the mentoring, supportive role that Margaret Mackay © Dave had in the time they got to work together in the Mines Rescue Department here in Coober Pedy.
