Abstract

This paper investigates issue voting in Britain from 1974 through 2001. We find that British voters tend to vote according to the directional rather than the proximity model. There is little evidence to support the view that voters in systems where discounting makes little sense vote differently from voters in systems where discounting would be rational.
