What are the basic qualifications for voting? Citizenship Age Residence Registration *Literacy tests and poll taxes illegal! *Mentally ill and convicted felons can have vote taken away

What are the reasons people choose to NOT vote? Political efficacy The belief that politics is efficient, and so your vote matters – thus, you are more likely to participate politically. Ballot fatigue Off-year elections Voting procedures “Cannot-voters” vs. “do not-voters”

What sociological factors influence voter behavior? Income/Occupation Education Gender Age Religion Race Geography Family and other groups

What psychological factors influence voter behavior?? Party identification Straight-ticket vs. split-ticket voting Independents Candidates and issues
