  • Voter Turnout in Manitoba: an Ecological Analysis♦
    Voter Turnout in Manitoba: An Ecological Analysis♦ Jared J. Wesley a and Lydia Summerlee b Presented at the Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association | May 16, 2011 a Assistant Professor, Department of Political Studies, University of Manitoba, [email protected] b Master of Arts Student, Department of Political Science, Wilfrid Laurier University, [email protected] *Please do not cite without permission. Abstract Voter turnout in Manitoba provincial elections has been in general decline since the mid-1970s. As in most advanced democracies, the trend remains a puzzle to even the most trained observers. Two important elements are missing from conventional studies, which are based primarily on country-wide public opinion surveys. First is the sense that context matters – that environmental and historical factors have as much of an effect on a community’s level of electoral participation as its residents’ personal attributes. Second, there is a noticeable dearth of sub-national research on citizen engagement in Canada. Addressing both gaps, this paper treats Manitoba as a case study in the community-level factors influencing the rate of voter turnout. Combining data from Elections Manitoba and the Manitoba Bureau of Statistics, it consists of an ecological analysis of electoral participation among the province’s fifty-seven constituencies from 1999 to 2007. The study suggests that, while conventional variables like age and affluence play a role, the competitiveness of the constituency is by far the most important factor in determining a district’s rate of voter turnout. This finding required analysts to shift their focus to “competitiveness” as the dependent variable, which, in turn, revealed that the best predictor of a district’s competitiveness was how close the race was in the previous election.
