I demonstrate that liberal democracy requires civic participation and requires a distinct category of civic obligations to participate epistemically. These civic epistemic obligations, or CEOs, are epistemic practices that lay the foundations for citizens to form high-quality political beliefs for a liberal democratic society. Yet it is incredibly difficult to effectively and consistently fulfill CEOs given data from moral psychology, behavioral economics, communication studies, political science, and technology ethics. Contrary to an idealized vision of political decision-making, over the past several decades, social and psychological data have demonstrated that because of our cognitive biases and poorly formed institutions, reasoning about political choices does not happen through some process of detached critical reflections.. I, therefore, further argue that a liberal commitment to democracy implies a commitment to the institutional prerequisites of epistemic civic obligations. I go on to offer some institutional responses that will mitigate the impediments citizens will have to exercise their CEOs.My project reveals how only through improving our social institutions can individual citizens have a hope of living up to those epistemic obligations. I do not merely offer idealized principles of liberal democracy that citizens must achieve but take seriously how citizens of actual liberal democracies have their participation upended by impediments to informed participation.
