My research focusses on methods of modelling voting patterns and social and political attitudes at granular levels, particularly in smaller geographical units than electoral districts. I hope to both expand the use of common techniques such as Multilevel Regression and Poststratification (MRP) and consider diverse alternative approaches such as the use of visual data with computer vision. These techniques can improve understanding of British electoral geography and the underlying social phenomenon which drive it, as well as considering electoral geography from the subjects’ perspectives – for example through the visual elements of street-scenes.
