ABSTRACT
The 2012 and 2016 presidential elections featured quite different Republican candidates, so an analysis of how social class was related to voting in these two elections helps to identify the underlying factors that have produced the change in the relationship between social class and voting that has taken place in this century. This analysis combines the various factors examined in the previous chapters into a multivariate analysis. This analysis provides a more rigorous test of the findings in the earlier chapters, and the results of this analysis support the conclusions of the previous chapters. Class differences in voting reflect differences in attitudes on race, immigration, and moral issues, along with the lack of class differences on most economic issues.
