Replication Data for: “Electoral Weakness of Secular Parties in the Middle East and North Africa during the Post-Uprisings Era of the 2010s”

This dataverse contains original quantitative data I collected for my dissertation project. With candidate and household surveys in Tunisia and Turkey, I collected data on political selection patterns and local-level organizational and ideological characteristics of the main secular and Islamist parties. In the dissertation, I argue that the electoral weakness of the main secular parties in the region in post-uprisings period of the 2010s stems from lack of organizational cohesion and highly qualified candidates in these parties as opposed to the Islamist parties.
