Abstract
Social interaction combined with social conformity spreads social norms, attitudes, and behaviors through a society. This research examines such a process geographically for compliance with the norm that good citizens should vote. The diffusion of conformist behavior affects the local degree of conformity with the norm and produces highly specific and predictable patterns of behavior across a country. These are demonstrated with qualitative and quantitative spatial analyses of voter turnout in the United States and Russia.
