Participants that actually participated in minipublics, are familiar with them as well as with low individual political trust and high individual trust in other citizens as political decision-makers are more open for empowered and/or autonomous minipublics ✊ (3/4)

Our survey conducted before the #USElection2024 reveals some interesting divides! Trump supporters show significantly lower Swift fan levels than Harris supporters.
Let's take a closer look at some fun data! 📊 🧵👇

Last week, André Bächtiger attended the summer retreat of the Düsseldorfer Institute for Internet and Democracy. It was an exciting event filled with inspiring discussions on the future of deliberative democracy 🤩✨
Vielen Dank an @AndreBaechtiger für den spannenden Austausch im DIID-Forschungsworkshop zu unseren Forschungsprojekten und Ideen. Wir sind ziemlich sicher, dass daraus noch vieles erwachsen wird.

Initial analyses of 🇪🇺election results in 🇩🇪 seem to confirm stereotypes of left-behind and populist voting. But are people who are/feel left behind generally undemocratic? @vschwaiger1 presents new research on the link between obj & subj disadvantage and undemocratic attitudes💫
