Abstract

This article analyzes voter turnout in the Czech Republic on a very detailed spatial structure and an extended yearly time series (1994–2018). Its main goal is to examine the spatial dimension of the disparities in voter turnout in local elections at the level of all (more than 6,000) Czech municipalities. To achieve this goal, global and local spatial autocorrelation methods are used. Municipality-level cartographic presentations then provide spatial evidence of highly stable patterns of electoral participation in Czech municipalities. In the long term, there is no substantial inter-electoral change of the clustering of voter turnout in the different municipalities, except for an overall decline of the homogeneity of the clusters with low or high electoral turnout. In short, the article provides an understanding of electoral turnout in Czech local elections that other approaches have not achieved.

捷克地方选举投票率地域分布(1994-2018)

本文以非常详细的空间结构和延长的年度时间序列(1994-2018)分析了捷克共和国的选民投票率。其主要目标是审查在捷克所有(6 000多个)市镇一级的地方选举中选民投票率的空间差异。为了实现这一目标，采用了全局和局部空间自相关方法。然后，市一级的地图展示提供了捷克各市高度稳定的选举参与模式的空间证据。从长期来看，除了投票率低或高的分组的同质性总体下降外，不同城市的选民投票率分组在选举间没有实质性的变化。简而言之，这篇文章提供了对捷克地方选举投票率的理解，这是其他方法无法做到的。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
