Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: In the weeks leading up to the 2004 election, there was ample speculation about how high turnout would be and what effect it would have on the outcome. It is now clear that voter mobilization efforts were not only unprecedented, but also fairly successful at increasing the number of people who voted in the election. What is less clear is what effect high levels of involvement had on the election outcome. This paper examines this subject through an analysis of the relationship between aggregate turnout and vote totals drawn from counties from the continental United States. The analysis supports two preliminary conclusions. First, Republicans received more votes in areas where turnout was higher, though this likely reflects a correlation between the factors associated with both turnout and Republican votes. Second, Democrats benefited in those counties where voter turnout was higher than we would expect given the socioeconomic characteristics of the county.
