Divided into six sections, the handbook covers voting in federal, state, and local elections; the influence of group identities such as gender, race, and age; and the role of candidates, campaigns, and media. Comparative chapters explore U.S. voting behavior alongside Canada, Germany, Brazil, and other countries. With unique emphasis on misinformation and social media's impact, the Handbook also incorporates innovative methodologies like social media analysis and conjoint experiments. Contributions from scholars worldwide ensure diverse perspectives, making this an essential resource for students, researchers, and general readers interested in American politics.
