New paper in @ajpseditor.bsky.social. Is descriptive representation good for substantive representation? Why do voters stay loyal to corrupt and poorly governing ethnic parties? I argue that we ought to focus less on patronage and more on dignity concerns. Defiant pride can come at a price. 1/🧵

Hi Christopher! Not sure ASO is doing this. Note our analysis already deals with baseline levels of support so they only have to avoid areas with increasing support even when baseline is low. Also ASO talk clearly about how they select routes based on other considerations

Thank you Simon! We don't think that's the case because towns can only apply to be departure/arrival towns so we control/remove these from some analyses

Thanks again Vittorio. We actually had looked at only small municipalities (less than median size, 440 people) but hadn't included it in the paper. You can see it here :)
