This is a written version of one of our papers presented to the @psaepop.bsky.social conference in Exeter last weekend. open.substack.com/pub/ruralspa...

Came back from my first EPOP conference @psaepop.bsky.social in Exeter. Great people, great ideas. Can‘t wait to be back ✨

At #EPOP2025, we were delighted to award Pippa Norris the 2025 Sir David Butler Prize for Lifetime Contribution to the Study of Elections, Public Opinion and Parties. @polstudiesassoc.bsky.social

Around this threshold, assignment to new parties is as good as random. So, presumably, I could use this design but swap turnout for fragmentation. I presented this at @psaepop.bsky.social and showed that adding a 3rd party to a 2 party race increase fragmentation by ≈0.7 effective parties.

#EPOP2025 is all wrapped up! Fantastic conference rounded off with dinner at Reed Hall @hannahbunting.bsky.social @uniofexeterhass.bsky.social @psaepop.bsky.social A huge thanks to all of our presenters, panellists, delegates and colleagues who supported to make it such a success.

Back from @psaepop.bsky.social at @universityofexeter.bsky.social still buzzing⚡️ Got the chance to present my work on moving out and populist attitudes, and learned so much from inspiring research. Wonderful people and discussions, such a boost to start my last PhD year in my second home 🇬🇧

On Friday, I was fortunate enough to promote our book, Beyond Woke and Anti-Woke, at a plenary session of the #EPOP2025 conference. Thanks to all who came and co-panellists Helen Berry, @evemworth.bsky.social and @hannahbunting.bsky.social

Kicked off my first week at @lsegovernment.bsky.social with the fantastic @psaepop.bsky.social #EPOP2025 conference in Exeter. Grateful for the warm welcome, great academic exchange and stunning English nature 🌿. Colleagues in or passing through London, please reach out, I’d be glad to connect!

A fascinating plenary session at #EPOP2025 yesterday, thanks to Professor Helen Berry and Dr Eve Worth from @uniofexeterhass.bsky.social and Professor Thomas Prosser from Cardiff University, chaired by @hannahbunting.bsky.social @pspolisci.bsky.social @psaepop.bsky.social

Horrifying moment of this #EPOP so far: realising that election studies will not just have to ask people what website people use for news, but whether they use ChatGPT and friends to help them understand politics, up to and including which party to vote for

Loving being back in beautiful Exeter for #EPOP2025 @psaepop.bsky.social - rediscovering old haunts, meeting great people and enjoying some super interesting panels. Massive kudos to @hannahbunting.bsky.social for making it happen!

Panel sessions (and coffee) underway at #EPOP2025! @psaepop.bsky.social @psaecn.bsky.social @polstudiesassoc.bsky.social

Looking forward to talking about AI's potential impact on political science. But more looking forward to hearing what my smarter co-panellists will have to say!

On my way to #EPOP2025, my favourite recurring conference, with @prossertj.bsky.social. This year I have a welcome problem - practically every panel has cool people I know doing great work, and there aren’t six of me to attend them all!
