In eight of the past dozen presidential elections, TV networks proclaimed the winner while citizens on the West Coast, Hawaii, and Alaska were still casting ballots. Is this a problem?

Adams employs a range of methods (including content analysis, focus groups, survey research, meta-analysis, and time-series analysis) to corroborate his finding that projections do not in fact discourage voter turnout—but do raise serious issues of equity and perceived discrimination. His persuasive analysis suggests clear policy options designed to keep voters from feeling discounted and devalued on election day..

Demonstrating how voter turnout can serve as an indicator of the health of a democracy, this study documents the conditions that can result in low voter turnout and suggests reforms that might alleviate these conditions. Mark Franklin concludes that declining turnout does not necessarily reflect reductions in civic virtue or increases in alienation.

From the supplier: State, local and district candidates for public office, particularly those who do not have much money to bankroll their campaigns, hesitate to spend money on get-out-the-vote (GOTV) programs in high-turnout presidential elections. Spending on GOTV programs are needed when a candidate's national ticket has a different voter base, when candidates' names are located on the lower portion of the ballot and when a candidate has significant voter support among non-Republicans and non-Democrats. Moreover, GOTV is needed when a voter base is known for its low turnout and when victory can only come when voters turn out in large numbers.
