c) In the context of the scenario, explain how Bob's completion of a college degree may influence his voting preferences.

Explanation:

a) Describe why Bob's voting behavior will likely mirror that of his parents.

Bob's voting behavior will likely mirror that of his parents since a person's political ideology is influenced by the viewpoints of family and friends and dominant views of the surrounding community and religion. Since their ethnic heritages are the same, a person's ideology can also be shaped by race and ethnic heritage, since people are more likely to believe or support the political party that is popular with the surrounding ethnic community. If bob and his parents are religious, religion can impact the ideologies they hold. For example, Religious people are more likely to vote conservatively and nonreligious people are more likely to vote liberally. 

b) In the context of the scenario, explain why Bob's ideological preferences may shift over time.

As he moves away from his parents and tries to find his own path in life, he might come across ideologies that he really believes in. This is because he will be more distant form his parents, his ethnic and racial community, and religious community. 

c) In the context of the scenario, explain how Bob's completion of a college degree may influence his voting preferences.

Depending on what social stance you are in, your political opinions can change. For example, poorer people are more likely to support liberal views since they want public service that can be provided to them. Rich people are more likely to support conservative perspectives since they don't want the government controlling their business.
