Stuart Perrett, University of Manchester
Project Date:

Award Amount:
$39,085

The polarization of the two major political parties in the U.S. has made voting harder for voters who are ideologically cross-pressured – those with liberal positions on some issues and conservative positions on others. Sociologists Delia Baldassarri and Stuart Perrett will examine how cross-pressured voters navigate the 2024 election. They will conduct survey experiments for their study.
