The moral and political nature of the belief that voting is a duty suggests that it is based on more abstract attitudes, acquired previously, such as support for one’s political community and democracy. It is also plausibly related to the country’s strength of democracy and homogeneity, which moderate the effect of political support. We test these expectations with a sample of 21 countries with data obtained from two Asian Barometer Surveys. We confirm the effects of the individual and contextual factors, as well as cross-level interactions: The impact of support for democracy is stronger in more democratic countries, and the effect of support for political community is more pronounced in ethnically fractionalized countries
