Examples of electorate

• The party's electorate basically resembles the complexion of society.

• Actually, they appear to the electorate as responsible parties contributing to the governance of the country.

• Parties and politicians routinely collect data on voters and use this information to target particular races, compose appeals to the electorate, and contact voters directly.

• By implication, and consistent with our earlier argument, they also indicate limited party structuring of the electorate.

• Finally, the extraordinary number of women candidates at all levels was expected to affect the electorate's thinking and behaviour on the basis of gender.

• Such events affect campaign strategy, the information levels within the electorate, and the allocation of media and money which shape that information.

• First, the late-nineteenth century was an extremely partisan time, resulting in large part from an evenly divided national electorate.

• Voting mechanisms are games and not simply procedures for tracking some truths about the underlying preferences or interests of the electorate.
