This article is part of the issue “Challenging Democracy: How Do Ideas of Populists and Disenchanted Citizens Align?” edited by Reinhard Heinisch & Oscar Mazzoleni, #openaccess doi.org/10.17645/pag... (4/5)

We find that populist parties in Europe are NOT generally more responsive to populist party voters than mainstream parties. Populist parties’ agenda‐responsiveness boosts voters’ SWD, yet being in government does not enhance this positive effect (3/5)

We investigate (1) how well populist parties represent populist party voters (issue-based responsiveness) & (2) link this responsiveness to their voters’ satisfaction with democracy (SWD) in 21 countries for the 2019 EP elections (2/5)
