"Americans vote at a lesser rate than citizens of virtually every other democracy in the world. Leighley and Nagler's carefully nuanced analysis reveals an income bias separating voters and nonvoters, along with sometimes sharp differences in policy preferences between the two groups. This important book sets the standard for understanding the motivations of voters and nonvoters, and for evaluating the impact of remedies designed to increase turnout and participation equality."--Robert Erikson, Columbia University
"Ongoing struggles over voter participation continue to be a defining ingredient of partisan competition and democratic politics in America. Leighley and Nagler provide timely and compelling evidence regarding the state of voter turnout in American presidential elections over the past four decades, and offer new perspectives on the efficacy and potential of electoral reforms intended to level the playing field in American politics."--Robert Huckfeldt, University of California, Davis
"This is the most thorough and sophisticated analysis of voting since Wolfinger and Rosenstone's definitive Who Votes?, published a quarter century ago. This becomes the new essential book for scholars and students on the demography of voters, their preferences, the context of voting laws, and choices presented by candidates. Its research and conclusions will not be superseded for some time to come."--Sidney Verba, Harvard University, coauthor of The Unheavenly Chorus
"Who Votes Now? is a welcome addition to scholarship on American voting behavior, written by two well-known, highly regarded, and capable political scientists."--Benjamin Highton, University of California, Davis
"Who Votes Now? is a very important contribution to the literature on political participation in America."--Nancy Burns, University of Michigan
