      abstract = {How do voters in Britain decide which party to vote for in  elections? Have age and education replaced class as the  social basis for voting? Are elections now  "presidentialised' with voters simply choosing between  party leaders? What role do the media, new and old, play in  all of this? The authors examine these and other questions  in the fourth edition of this popular text. The core of the  text is devoted to examining and explaining theories of  party choice, including the debate about whether voters are  driven more by issues and ideology or by--including the way  that and party leaders are now the key determinants of  election outcomes--the authors also devote separate  chapters to turnout trends and patterns, the media,  electoral systems, the geography of party support, and--new  to this edition--referendums. Fully revised and with  detailed analysis of the 2019 election and the electoral  fallout of Brexit, the text incorporates the latest  research on elections and voting behaviour, and includes  analysis of recent trends and developments--such as the  effect of digital media on electoral politics and where  recent misfires leave the opinion polls.
