Using individual-level representative data on registration and voting for the entire United States over the 2008–2018 decade, we find that diversity in the candidate pool promotes the registration and voting of eligible-to-vote individuals, particularly those belonging to the youngest generations of voters, those located in swing states, and growing minorities, as in the case of Hispanic voters. Given the changing electorate, increasing candidate diversity might prove crucial in promoting political and electoral engagement. – Reproduced   aAEA Papers and Proceedings   aELECTIONS -UNITED STATES  cAR  00102ddc40709389544aIIPAbIIPAd2021-01-29h 110, May, 2020: p.436-441pAR123966r2021-01-29yAR
