Why Is Class Voting Decreasing?

David Butler and Donald Stokes (1969, 85–87) developed a framework to explain group-based voting that may help to identify the sources of declining class voting. They described group-based voting as a two-step process: voters are first linked to a social group, and then the group is linked to a political party. The combined strength of these two links determines the overall level of group-based voting. What has changed: the relationship between voters and class groupings or the relationship between class groupings and the political parties?
