As the Masters begins, Will Feltus, Ben Angle, and I have a new piece in Campaigns & Elections magazine on the political viewership of big sporting events. TLDR: Republicans have a love affair with golf’s top tournaments. Democrats prefer the majors of the other country club sport, tennis. Republicans like to watch cars and horses speed around a track, while Democrats are more likely to watch basketball and soccer players race up and down the court and pitch. Viewers of every major sport are both more likely to vote and more likely to watch games and tournaments in real-time than viewers of other program formats. But the Masters broadcast is truly "a tradition unlike any other" - a politics-free viewing experience! For sports fans, it’s going to be a rare sanctuary until Election Day.
