The income distribution of voters : a case study from Germany
Engelhardt, Carina; Wagener, Andreas - 2017
Although voter turnout in the 2013 general election to the German Bundestag differed considerably across income brackets, the income distribution of voters did not differ, in a statistically significant way, from that of the entire population. The non-uniform turnout, thus, is unlikely to affect...
