Well, you only control yourself. In principle, groups where it is expected that you vote + where your are asked if you bothered could tend to have higher turnouts. However, once you actually are in the polling booth, then you can somewhat ignore the issue of how the person got there. (but it would still have an effect on how you model other voters' behaviour.) ---- Election-Methods mailing list - see http://electorama.com/em for list info
