Why do people vote? - The Psychology of Voting
In a First Past The Post (FPTP) system, one individual vote is completely insignificant. Despite this, many of us choose to vote. Why is this? Psychologist Chris Worfolk will examine the question, followed by a group discussion on the topic.
In this talk, we'll cover:
* Is voting worthwhile from a rational standpoint?
* Why do people think they vote?
* Why do people actually vote?
* What we can do instead to make a difference
