With @mauritsmeijers.bsky.social, we use a new survey item that we fielded in surveys in five countries to examine who accepts party policy change. Check out the 🧵 by Maurits below for an overview of our findings!

Survey experiments show that respondents in countries with undervalued to mildly overvalued currencies disapprove of currency depreciations, whereas those facing a very highly overvalued currency favor depreciation.

Results from 412 elections in 59 democratic countries show that voters generally punish depreciations when the currency is undervalued. At extremely high levels of currency overvaluation, voters sometimes reward incumbents for depreciation.

Do exchange rates affect elections? Yes!
