We are happy to announce that the 3rd CMES volume lands in March @McGillQueensUP. Political Engagement in Municipal Elections asks questions about who participates in local politics, how they participate, and why they do (or do not do) so. See tinyurl.com/yzm6wt2d to order.
My first (co-authored) book is available for pre-order! 📚 Voting Online is the first Canadian book to provide a comprehensive overview and analysis of digital elections, using the largest case-study of online voting in the world🌎
"Survey data suggests that the majority of Ontarians oppose the introduction of municipal political parties at this time. This attitude changes little when we add additional information to the question." By @ChrisErl @lucasjacklucas &Michael McGregor options-po.li/3YU8oD0
Thrilled to have won the @evotingcc 2022 Best Paper Award for my work on exogenous shocks and online voting administration with @nicolejgoodman, Mike McGregor, @ZacSpicer, and Scott Pruysers #EVoteID2022 Until next year!
"This book makes a major contribution by gathering data on political behaviour at the local level. This perspective makes it possible to resituate urban political issues within national problems." Caroline Patsias @UQAM Read more: bit.ly/3stg15t @CSDC_CECD #elections
"Voting in Quebec Municipal Elections is a must-read for anyone who has thought about whether local political parties should be present in municipal elections." @asancton @WesternU Read more: bit.ly/3stg15t @cmes_eemc @C_Dem_Canada #PoliSci #CDNPoli #Election #Quebec
