Really happy to see my work with @dweisstanner.bsky.social published with @bjpols.bsky.social. In this letter, we look at symbolic class signalling through cultural consumption and how effective it is across voters of different parties.

‼️ O, Canada is now in CHES!

The data include party position estimates for federal parties in Canada + parties in Ontario and Quebec. It's also super easy to combine with other @chesdata.bsky.social data to compare positions with positions of parties in other countries!
