This study tests two theories that may explain why individuals demand e-government services: self-interest and symbolic politics. Using a unique survey of local government e-service initiatives, we find that both explanations do well to predict e-government usage and demand for better access and training programs. We also uncover distinctive attitudes and behaviors among low-income and minority respondents, which suggests they are more likely to use these services and potentially benefit from expanded programs. These findings should help policy-makers understand and tailor e-government initiatives to needy populations
