Abstract
The article adds to the burgeoning literature examining the macro‐level influence of income inequalities and electoral turnout by evaluating the relationship between the two variables across a global sample of 161 presidential elections from 1990 to 2010. Controlling for compulsory voting, semi‐presidentialism, federalism, regime type, development, population size, and the closeness of the election, we find that dispersions in income neither directly nor indirectly influence macro‐level electoral participation in presidential political systems. Rather, the variable's impact on electoral turnout is statistically insignificant and empirically nonsubstantial. In this sense, our article rejects both the power and the conflict theories' predictions on the supposed relationship between the two concepts at the macro‐level.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
