Resumo(s)
This Thesis examines the relationship between heterogenous inflation, race and
voting behaviour - using the 2018 and 2022 US Midterm Elections as a case
study. Multiple datasets are combined to build a congressional district level,
race-weighed measure of perceptions of inflation to examine heterogenous
inflation impacts on voting behaviour. The results of the study supply robust
evidence that race-based heterogeneous inflation perceptions did in fact have an
impact on the 2022 US Midterm elections, namely punishing the party of the
incumbent government - the Democrats - particularly in its voting shares.
