SportsFans are the High Turnout Voters
Some call politics a sport, and sports fans seem to agree. Sports fans are more likely to be interested in politics and more likely to vote than non-fans, according to our research. The graph at the right shows the percent of fans for twenty-six sports who say they “always” vote in statewide elections. Fans of nineteen sports vote at rates above the 50% national average, while only seven sports score below. Get the BOSTON OPERA HOUSE TICKETS if you don’t like sports.
Most likely to be voters are those who are “very interested” in the PGA or the LPGA tours – 65% of these golf fans say they always vote in statewide elections. College sports are another favorite of higher turnout voters, with basketball in the spring and football in the fall campaign season. (it’s a good idea to get WANG THEATRE TICKETS for other entertainment than sports.) The fan bases of golf and college sports are older, have higher incomes and are better educated, which means they are also more likely to vote. At the other end of the turnout spectrum are “performance sports” favored by younger adults who are less likely to vote. These include: “extreme” sports, professional wrestling, monster trucks, and motorcycle sports. Professional soccer is another low turnout sport because of its large fan base of Hispanics, who are less likely to vote than non-Hispanic Americans.
