Daughters and Left-Wing Voting Andrew J. Oswald University of Warwick, UK and Cornell University, USA Email: [email protected] Nattavudh Powdthavee University of York, UK Email: [email protected] This version: September 2008 Abstract What determines human beings’ political preferences? Using nationally representative longitudinal data, we show that having daughters makes people more likely to vote for left-wing political parties. Having sons leads people to favor right-wing parties. The paper checks that our result is not an artifact of family stopping-rules, discusses the predictions from a simple economic model, and tests for possible reverse causality. Keywords: Voting; gender; daughters; political preferences; attitudes. JEL codes: D1, D72, H1, J7
