Turnout and the Vote Revisited

Abstract
In his contribution to this volume, Erikson contends that the results of my previous research (Radcliff 1994) are an artifact arising from my failure to account for changes in electoral dynamics in the South. When excluding the southern states from the analysis, Erikson argues, there is no evidence that turnout affects the vote. I demonstrate that omitting the South actually has very little impact: The evidence continues to support strongly the proposition that higher turnout benefits the Democrats.
