    Episode 4: Sabrina Mayer on Immigrant-Origin Voters

    In the fourth episode of “Political Science? No Problem et al.” we talk to Professor Sabrina Mayer about the voting behavior of immigrant origin voters in Germany. How can we understand the voting behavior of this heterogeneous voter group and what do we know about their party preferences? Why is there a stronger affinity for the AfD among Russian Germans and to what extent has the party affiliation of Turkish-German voters changed in recent years? Moreover, we discussed whether parties are increasingly trying to appeal to migrant voters, what kind of information environment these voters find themselves in and what the methodological difficulties are in studying their political preferences.   Sabrina is a full professor of Political Sociology at the University of Bamberg as well as associated member at the DeZIM Institute in Berlin.  Her research focuses on group identities, political attitudes and comparative voting behavior and is best known for findings on the voting behavior of migrant voters.  You can find her website here: https://sabrinajmayer.de/ and follow her on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/sabrinajmayer?lang=de.
