Abstract
The primary purpose of this thesis will be to explore whether pluralism as a dominant political ideology is a valuable predictor of voter turnout. Secondly it will consider whether the non-political aspects of the dominant American ideology are valuable predictors. Ultimately the following study will consider whether the dominant American ideology (the dominant political ideology and non-political aspects combined) is a valuable predictor of voter turnout. In doing so, it is hypothesized that the dominant political ideology as defined by specific variables from the National Election survey is a predictor of voter turnout.
