- W2162215112 abstract "This paper addresses the quality of democracy in the European Union by examining how well citizens’ political views are represented in the political arena. By introducing the concept of ‘voting correctly’, which was developed by Lau and Redlawsk (1997, 2006), we analyze if voters select parties that most accurately represent their policy preferences. We focus on the two conflict dimensions that characterize contestation at the European level: left/right ideology and European integration. By employing data from the European Election Study 2004, we demonstrate that in terms of left right approximately six out of ten voters appear to get it right, whereas in terms of European integration about half get it right. Those not voting correctly in terms of left/right more often select parties more right-wing than themselves, but the resulting bias is limited in size. In terms of European integration these effects are more pronounced. Those not voting correctly mostly vote for parties that are less Euroskeptic than themselves. Consequently, political parties fail to accurately represent their voters on this dimension. In addition, we show that extensive variation exists across member states. This variation is largely a function of choice set (number of parties) and the electorate’s level of support for European integration. These results bear important implications for our understanding of democratic representation in Europe." @default.
