The authors regret the inclusion of an error in the above article.

An incorrect version of Figure 3 was mistakenly included in the article and reproduced using the replication materials. The correct version is provided below, and the replication materials have been updated accordingly.

Figure 3. Distribution of Politicians’ Conservative Bias, by Country (Revised Version)

Figure 3 reports “the distribution of politicians in terms of inaccuracy of their estimation of public opinion, averaged across all of the statements” (emphasis not originally included). The version of Figure 3 that was mistakenly included in the published article reports histograms of the distribution of individual statements, instead of the politician-averaged distributions. The corrected version of Figure 3 included in this Corrigendum now corresponds to the figure’s caption cited above, as originally intended.

The authors would like to thank Elena Ghazi (Harvard University) for spotting this error.
