Survey of Overseas US Democratic Partisans in the 2024 Election Cycle

A collection of a two-wave panel survey of members of Democrats Abroad, the official overseas arm of the US Democratic Party, during the 2024 election cycle. It was created to analyze the factors influencing transnational campaign involvement among partisans living outside the United States. The author is James A. McCann of PS: Political Science & Politics.

Use Cases

• Analyze the relationship between integration into a residential country's party system and engagement in American campaigns.
• Model the impact of migration experience and settlement factors on campaign activism among overseas partisans.
• Examine how forces prompting domestic campaign activism compare for partisans living abroad using survey panel data.
• Study campaign spillover effects where partisan engagement in one context influences involvement in separate domains.

Strengths

• Data is derived from an original two-wave panel survey, enabling longitudinal analysis.
• Focuses on the specific and understudied population of overseas US Democratic partisans.
• The dataset addresses a gap in literature on political transnationalism and emigrant party branches.

Limitations

• The sample is limited to members of Democrats Abroad and may not represent all overseas US partisans.
• Specific sample size, demographic breakdowns, and survey question details are not provided.
• Findings are temporally specific to the 2024 US election cycle.
