| Abstract | We examine the link between voter turnout and institutional features of electoral systems such as the threshold of exclusion and proportionality, and other empirical factors such as competition and the effective number of parties, i.e. factors that previous literature has suggested will probably be closely linked to district magnitude. As in Blais and Arts (2004) and Grofman and Selb (forthcoming), we find a complicated pattern of interrelationships in which the link between party constellation and turnout is mediated by other factors, and is not strongly monotonic. 2 |
