Marjorie Hershey builds on the book’s three-pronged coverage of party organization, party in the electorate, and party in government and integrates contemporary examples-such as campaign finance reform, party polarization, and social media-to bring to life the fascinating story of how parties shape our political system. New to the 17th Edition Fully updated through the 2016 election, including changes in virtually all of the boxed materials, the chapter openings, and the data presented. Explores increasing partisan hostility, the status of voter ID laws and other efforts to affect voter turnout, young voters’ attitudes and participation, and the role of big givers such as the energy billionaire Koch brothers in the 2016 campaigns. Critically examines the idea that Super PACs are replacing, or can replace, the party organizations in running campaigns.

It also deals with the Empirical Implications of Theoretical Models (EITM) as currently understood as a way of thinking about causal inference in service to causal reasoning. Additionally, it explores the approach's origins and various ways in which NSF's call to EITM action has been interpreted. It makes a brief attempt to explain why the EITM approach emerged, why it is valuable, and how it is currently understood. It then contends that EITM has been interpreted in multiple ways. It emphasizes a subset of extant interpretations and, in the process, offers views about the most constructive way forward. The idea of EITM is to bring deduction and induction, hypothesis generation and hypothesis testing, close together.}, Doi = {10.1093/oxfordhb/9780199286546.003.0037}, Key = {fds249398} } @misc{fds249412, Author = {J.

David Mayhew’s study of the Congress (published in 1974) argued that political parties were weak institutions in the Congress, and that they were weak because the members wanted it that way.2 Virtually as he was writing, the Democratic Party (in the midst of its forty-year reign as majority party), began revising its own rules to strengthen its party organization and its leadership in the House. These changing electoral and legislative circumstances resulted, in time, in the passage of more partisan legislation. That is, many of the most important pieces of legislation, aft er these changes were fully in place, passed with a greater degree of party-line voting and with policy content that was closer to the views of a now more consensual majority in the Democratic Party than was true in the House Mayhew examined (see chapter 1 for a discussion of changes in party unity). This trend continued, indeed even expanded, when the Republican Party won majority control in the 1994 elections, and has persisted with the return of Democrats to power.}, Doi = {10.4324/9780203868416-24}, Key = {fds249456} } @misc{fds198847, Author = {J.H.

However, since the early 1990s significant anti-American sentiments have started to emerge in China. Such a dramatic shift in Chinese people’s attitudes toward the U.S. has significant implications for both U.S. domestic politics and foreign policies. Many politicians, journalists, and scholars have identified the increasing reliance of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) on nationalism for mobilizing political support, as well as its still firm control over the domestic mass media for propaganda campaigns, as critical factors driving this dramatic public opinion shift. Nevertheless, without systematic and appropriate empirical evidence, it is extremely difficult to adjudicate the validity of speculations on why such a change occurred. Taking advantage of a 2005 two-city survey in China with pertinent survey instruments, we (a) explored Chinese urban residents’ usage of different media sources, (b) examined the dimensionality of their evaluations of the U.S., and (c) scrutinized the impacts of Chinese urbanites’ usage of diversified media sources on their perceptions of the U.S. The findings show that people’s attitudes toward U.S. foreign policies can be clearly distinguished from their evaluations of American political institutions and socioeconomic achievements. Most importantly, our analyses also reveal that, embedded as they are in China’s partially transformed and partially diversified media environment, Chinese urban residents do not become pro-American (or vice versa) from the usage of alternative media sources beyond the CCP’s control.}, Doi = {10.4324/9780203720165}, Key = {fds249401} } @misc{fds366927, Author = {Aldrich, JH and Jenke, LM}, Title = {TURNOUT AND THE CALCULUS OF VOTING: Recent advances and prospects for integration with theories of campaigns and elections}, Pages = {83-95}, Booktitle = {The Routledge Handbook of Elections, Voting Behavior and Public Opinion}, Year = {2017}, Month = {January}, ISBN = {9781138890404}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.4324/9781315712390-8}, Abstract = {After a review of the basics of the calculus of voting with respect to turnout, this chapter considers two relatively new theoretical advances: the development of a fully articulated theory of expressive voting; and specification of the utility function.

The model predicts that senators will be more likely to run for president if their relative costs of running are low, if they have no political liabilities that might reduce their chances of winning, and if they have a propensity to take risks, which we measure by their past willingness to take risks in running for the Senate. The model works well in accounting for the decisions of Democrats to seek the presidency in 1972, 1976, and 1984, and can explain why few Republican senators ran in 1980. The model is used to predict which senators in the 99th Congress are relatively likely to run for president in 1988. The model works better in accounting for the past behavior of Democrats than Republicans, and also generates more plausible predictions about future Democratic presidential candidates. This partisan difference results largely from the different opportunity structures of the two parties.

The present study examined the hypothesis that one reason why self-interest may not exert a strong influence on political reasoning is that it is less cognitively accessible than other applicable constructs. We examined the influence of both individual differences in issue-relevant experience and the priming of self-interest on political judgments and reasoning. Subjects (N = 66) were initially classified as having either a high or low level of experience for each of two issues (environmental pollution and social service spending). Several weeks later, subjects participated in two ostensibly unrelated studies. The first conveyed the priming manipulation; the second involved completing questionnaires to assess subjects' opinions about hypothetical legislative proposals and their reasoning with respect to ambiguous political scenarios. We predicted that priming would result in greater self-interested reasoning about issues, regardless of the individual's level of experience. We also expected individuals with more extensive issue-related experience to consider their self-interest to a greater extent when reasoning about political issues. Priming, in turn, was expected to lead to different policy preferences among low and high experience subjects, since different issue positions would best serve the self-interests of these two groups. These predictions were generally supported. The implications of these findings for theory and research on social and political cognition are discussed. © 1991.}, Doi = {10.1016/0022-1031(91)90016-y}, Key = {fds249516} } @article{fds249537, Author = {Harper, RK and Aldrich, J}, Title = {The political economy of sugar legislation}, Journal = {Public Choice}, Volume = {70}, Number = {3}, Pages = {299-314}, Publisher = {Springer Nature}, Year = {1991}, Month = {June}, ISSN = {0048-5829}, url = {http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:A1991FN68900004&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=47d3190e77e5a3a53558812f597b0b92}, Abstract = {The findings of this paper are a rather straightforward account of the political economy of senatorial voting on the sugar program. In the spirit of Stigler and Peltzman's accounts of interest group activity, voting on sugar is indeed related to the concentration of economic interests in the Senators' states. States with high concentrations of sugar growers and processing tend to vote for the program, those with high concentration of users tend to vote against it. The emergence of corn syrup as a sugar substitute and its subsequent interests in the program further supports this perspective. These concentrated interests are associated with conditions ripe for overcoming the collective action problem and, we infer, use their organizations to influence senatorial behavior. The political variables suggest countervailing forces which can be interpreted, at least in part, as further examples of organized (here, politically organized) influences on the interests of Senators. Thus, while the model is one of opposing interests, those of producers and users tend to influence different Senators. The major group-interest trade-off, then, is between the pull of organized interests in the constituency with that of party organization at the national (or national institutional level), at least for those for whom the pull is in opposite directions. It is clear, then, that variables representing (concentrated) consumer interests as well as variables representing grower and processor interests as well as variables representing grower and processor interests are significant in determining voting patterns on sugar legislation in the Senate. This model, therefore, is not one in which one-sided organizational interests operate politically uncontested. That, even so, consumer interests are not powerful enough to prevent sugar programs from passing is clear at one level, due to the existence of the program over most of this period. The existing level of the transfers from consumers to producers and of deadweight losses must be reflective of the magnitude of their respective free rider problems. Yet voting on the program to renew or alter those benefits at any level clearly reflects these interests and their interplay. © 1991 Kluwer Academic Publishers.}, Doi = {10.1007/BF00156237}, Key = {fds249537} } @article{fds249515, Author = {Bianco, WT and Aldrich, JH}, Title = {A Game-Theoretic Model of Party Affiliation of Candidates and Office Holders}, Journal = {Mathematical and Computer Modeling}, Volume = {16}, Number = {8-9}, Pages = {103-116}, Publisher = {Elsevier BV}, Year = {1992}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0895-7177(92)90090-8}, Abstract = {In this paper, we develop a formal model of ambition theory, extending it to account for the choice of party affiliation.

The first game models the affiliation decisions of an incumbent and a challenger within a single constituency. Our analysis shows these decisions to be fundamentally interdependent. Switches in affiliation can occur because of shifts in the electoral support for the parties, but also because politicians want to avoid contested primaries. Moving beyond one district, we show how the affiliation decisions of candidates running for different offices or in different districts are also interdependent. The analysis indicates that when electoral strength depends on who runs, politicians affiliated with a decaying political party are involved in a collective-action game. © 1992.}, Doi = {10.1016/0895-7177(92)90090-8}, Key = {fds249515} } @article{fds249513, Author = {Abramson, PR and Aldrich, JH and Paolino, P and Rohde, DW}, Title = {“Sophisticated” Voting in the 1988 Presidential Primaries}, Journal = {American Political Science Review}, Volume = {86}, Number = {1}, Pages = {55-69}, Publisher = {Cambridge University Press (CUP)}, Year = {1992}, Month = {January}, ISSN = {0003-0554}, url = {http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:A1992HK86200005&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=47d3190e77e5a3a53558812f597b0b92}, Abstract = {Voters in multicandidate contests may confront circumstances under which it is in their interest to vote for a second- or even lower-ranked candidate.

We examine patterns of voting types based on ordinal measures of preferences among candidates and assessments of their chances of winning their party's nomination and estimate several models of choice, testing the multicandidate calculus of voting.

Yet in presidential primary elections the determinants of voter choices are less clear. Partisanship is inconsequential, information about candidate personalities and policy positions is scarce, and a fourth factor, expectations, may influence voters. In this paper, we reconsider the influence of political issues in presidential primaries. We argue that past work has not adequately considered how issues matter in primary elections. Primaries are intraparty affairs, and the political issues that typically divide the parties are not very relevant in primaries. Instead, we focus on the policy issues each candidate chooses to emphasize in their quest for the nomination, which we call policy priorities. With data gathered about media coverage of the presidential contenders in the 1988 primaries, and using exit poll data from the 1988 Super Tuesday primaries, we show that issues, as policy priorities, do matter in presidential primary elections. This research also implies that primary campaigns matter, since information concerning the policy priorities of the candidates reaches the intended audience. © 1994 Plenum Publishing Corporation.}, Doi = {10.1007/BF01498953}, Key = {fds249509} } @article{fds341799, Author = {Abramson, PR and Aldrich, JH and Paolino, P and Rohde, DW}, Title = {Third-Party and Independent Candidates in American Politics: Wallace, Anderson, and Perot}, Journal = {Political Science Quarterly}, Volume = {110}, Number = {3}, Pages = {349-367}, Publisher = {Oxford University Press (OUP)}, Year = {1995}, Month = {September}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.2307/2152568}, Doi = {10.2307/2152568}, Key = {fds341799} } @article{fds249507, Author = {Abramson, P and Paolino, P and Rohde, DW and Aldrich, JH}, Title = {The Problem of Third-Party and Independent Candidates in the American Political System: Wallace, Anderson, and Perot in Comparative Perspective}, Journal = {Political Studies Quarterly}, Volume = {10}, Number = {3}, Year = {1995}, Month = {Fall}, Key = {fds249507} } @article{fds249506, Author = {Rohde, D and Aldrich, JH}, Title = {Theories of Party in the Legislature and the Transition to Republican Rule in the House}, Journal = {Political Science Quarterly}, Volume = {112}, Number = {4}, Year = {1997}, Key = {fds249506} } @article{fds341797, Author = {Aldrich, JH}, Title = {Positive Theory, Normative Theory, and Practical Politics: Sidney Verba, Kay Lehman Schlozman, and Henry E.

Given that the leadership decided to use Appropriations as one of the vehicles of major policy change, they and the Conference sought to monitor the committee's actions, and to influence it to behave as they wanted. The leaders used their enhanced powers over incentives and with regard to the agenda to advance the party cause. Both leaders and the Conference sought to block policy shifts away from what they wanted, but facilitated changes in the desired direction.

Three, including a major, centrally located candidate, Yitzhak Mordechai, withdrew from competition during the two days before the voting. Mordechai withdrew in large measure in reaction to the strategic decisions of voters, that is, some voters who favored him deserted his candidacy as his poll standings declined. We use surveys conducted during the 1999 campaign to estimate models of strategic voting behavior based on the multicandidate calculus of voting. We find that strategic voting in the Israeli, majority-with-runoff electoral system closely resembled the level and nature of strategic voting found in the more nearly pure plurality systems for which the statistical models were originally developed.

Much subsequent development saw an increasing degree of holding and using of attitudes and beliefs about foreign affairs among the public.

Downs points out that in such cases the rational voter needs to determine what coalitions are possible, i.e. to ascertain their probability and to anticipate the policy compromises that they entail. Downs adds that this may be too complex a task and concludes that 'most voters do not vote as though elections were government-selection mechanisms' (Downs, 1957: 300). We test Downs' 'pessimistic' conclusion in the case of the 2003 Israeli election, an election that was bound to produce a coalition government and in which the issue of what the possible coalitions were was at the forefront of the campaign. We show that voters' views about the coalitions that could be formed after the election had an independent effect on vote choice, over and above their views about the parties, the leaders and their ideological orientations. We estimate that for one voter out of ten, coalition preferences were a decisive consideration, that is, they induced the voter to support a party other than the most preferred one. For many others, they were a factor, though perhaps not the dominant one. Furthermore, the least informed were as prone to vote on the basis of coalition preferences as the most informed. Our evidence disconfirms Downs' pessimistic view that voters will decide not to care about the formation of government. When they are provided with sufficient information about the possible options, voters think ahead about the coalitions that may be formed after the election.

The election of 2004 involves two linked and countervailing puzzles. The first is: How did President George W. Bush manage to win at all, avoiding the fates of George H.W. Bush and Jimmy Carter? The other is: Why didn't he win by a more substantial margin than in his first election, as all reelected presidents since Eisenhower were able to do? On the one hand, in the wake of September 11, the president had approval ratings around 90% and the threat of terrorism remained a substantial concern through Election Day. This would seem to afford Bush an overwhelming advantage. On the other hand, the public's views of the state of the economy and of the course of the war in Iraq were negative. We think that the juxtaposition of these questions will help to explain the outcome of the election and of the pattern of the results.

Therefore, variables that form part of the standard cognitive-based accounts of turnout should be more weakly related to turnout among those with a strong habit. We draw evidence from a large array of ANES surveys to test these hypotheses and find strong support. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.}, Doi = {10.1007/s11109-010-9148-3}, Key = {fds249492} } @article{fds249493, Author = {Aldrich, JH}, Title = {Elinor Ostrom and the ‘just right’ solution}, Journal = {Public Choice}, Volume = {143}, Number = {3-4}, Pages = {269-273}, Year = {2010}, ISSN = {0048-5829}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11127-010-9630-9}, Abstract = {Elinor Ostrom is justly valued for her contributions to understanding the nature of and solution to common pool resource problems (CPRs).

However, since the early 1990s significant anti-American sentiments have started to emerge in China. Such a dramatic shift in Chinese people's attitudes toward the U.S. has significant implications for both U.S. domestic politics and foreign policies. Many politicians, journalists, and scholars have identified the increasing reliance of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) on nationalism for mobilizing political support, as well as its still firm control over the domestic mass media for propaganda campaigns, as critical factors driving this dramatic public opinion shift. Nevertheless, without systematic and appropriate empirical evidence, it is extremely difficult to adjudicate the validity of speculations on why such a change occurred. Taking advantage of a 2005 two-city survey in China with pertinent survey instruments, we (a) explored Chinese urban residents' usage of different media sources, (b) examined the dimensionality of their evaluations of the U.S., and (c) scrutinized the impacts of Chinese urbanites' usage of diversified media sources on their perceptions of the U.S. The findings show that people's attitudes toward U.S. foreign policies can be clearly distinguished from their evaluations of American political institutions and socioeconomic achievements. Most importantly, our analyses also reveal that, embedded as they are in China's partially transformed and partially diversified media environment, Chinese urban residents do not become pro-American (or vice versa) from the usage of alternative media sources beyond the CCP's control. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.}, Doi = {10.1080/10584609.2011.572479}, Key = {fds249491} } @article{fds198845, Author = {J.H.

The contributors--leading experts from several disciplines in the fields of polling, public opinion, survey methodology, and elections and voting behavior--illuminate some of the most important questions and results from the ANES 2006 pilot study. They look at such varied topics as self-monitoring in the expression of political attitudes, personal values and political orientations, alternate measures of political trust, perceptions of similarity and disagreement in partisan groups, measuring ambivalence about government, gender preferences in politics, and the political issues of abortion, crime, and taxes. Testing new ideas in the study of politics and the political psychology of voting choices and turnout, this collection is an invaluable resource for all students and scholars working to understand the American electorate. © 2012 by Princeton University Press.

The conditions of the CPG theory continued to be met so that we can continue to test the theory's predictions. We show that following the Republican Revolution, the role of the party remained paramount and the party leadership maintained its influence over the direction of policy. While in the majority, both parties used the Appropriations Committee as a vehicle for policy change and the party leadership monitored committee actions, either by blocking policy shifts away from what the majority party wanted or facilitating changes in the desired direction. © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.}, Doi = {10.1080/07343469.2012.710708}, Key = {fds249484} } @article{fds249487, Author = {J.

Following a new line of research, we contrast China's domestic-controlled media to foreign free media. After accounting for the selection bias in Chinese urbanites' media access, we do not find sufficient evidence for the effect of the media strategies directly targeting their democratic conceptions. However, sufficient and robust evidence shows that more intensive consumption of diverse media sources, including foreign media, does significantly but indirectly counteract the Chinese government's political campaigns targeting its citizens' democratic conceptions, via thwarting the government's media strategies to cultivate a collectivistic norm in the society. © 2014 SAGE Publications.}, Doi = {10.1177/0032329213519423}, Key = {fds249408} } @article{fds341789, Author = {Aldrich, JH and Montgomery, JM and Sparks, DB}, Title = {Polarization and ideology: Partisan sources of low dimensionality in scaled roll call analyses}, Journal = {Political Analysis}, Volume = {22}, Number = {4}, Pages = {435-456}, Year = {2014}, Month = {January}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/pan/mpt048}, Abstract = {In this article, we challenge the conclusion that the preferences of members of Congress are best represented as existing in a low-dimensional space.

This suggests that the increasing levels of party polarization in recent Congresses may have produced false evidence in favor of a lowdimensional policy space.

Consequently, citizen preferences over institutions may "inherit"-to use William Riker's term-the features of preferences over outcomes. But the level of information and understanding required for this effect to be observable seems quite high. In this paper, we investigate whether Riker's intuition about citizens acting on institutional preferences is borne out by an original empirical dataset collected for this purpose. These data, a survey commissioned specifically for this project, were collected as part of a larger nationally representative sample conducted right before the 2004 election. The results show that support for a reform to split a state's Electoral College votes proportionally is explained by (1) which candidate one supports, (2) which candidate one thinks is likely to win the election under the existing system of apportionment, (3) preferences for abolishing the Electoral College in favor of the popular vote winner, and (4) statistical interactions between these variables. In baldly political terms, Kerry voters tend to support splitting their state's Electoral College votes if they felt George W. Bush was likely to win in that state. But Kerry voters who expect Kerry to win their state favor winner-take-all Electoral College rules for their state. In both cases, mutatis mutandis, the reverse is true for Bush voters. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media New York.}, Doi = {10.1007/s11127-013-0056-z}, Key = {fds287701} } @article{fds249400, Author = {Aldrich, J and Lu, J and Kang, L}, Title = {How do Americans view the rising China?}, Journal = {Journal of Contemporary China}, Volume = {24}, Number = {92}, Pages = {203-221}, Year = {2015}, Month = {March}, ISSN = {1067-0564}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10670564.2014.932148}, Abstract = {The dramatic increase in China’s economic and hence political power and influence is a common story around the world.

Historically, the Founding period set the stage of separated powers and the first party system. America developed a market economy, a middle class, and a mass-based set of parties in the Antebellum period. Through the Progressive era, nation-wide reforms led to a more democratic but increasingly candidate-centered politics in the North, and the establishment of Jim Crow politics in the South. The post-War period saw the full development of candidate-centered elections. While the breakup of Jim Crow due to the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts in the mid-1960s ended Jim Crow and made possible a competitive party system in the South, the later was delayed until the full implementation of the Republican's southern strategy in 1980 and beyond.

This is thought to be particularly consequential for turnout among the young. Harder and less cost-effective to reach, young adults are less mobilized and vote less often, creating a vicious circle of demobilization. However, new forms of political communication—including online and text messaging—have created expectations this circle might be broken. Is this happening? We examine data from Module 4 of the Comparative Study of Electoral Systems surveys, looking at the prevalence of different types of party contacts in 38 countries, the profile of voters who are reached, and the effects of these efforts on turnout. New forms of party contacting do matter for turnout and partially reduce the age gap in contacting, but still fail to compensate for the much larger differentials that persist in traditional forms of contacting.}, Doi = {10.1177/1354068818797367}, Key = {fds341782} } @article{fds341781, Author = {Rheault, L and Blais, A and Aldrich, JH and Gschwend, T}, Title = {Understanding people’s choice when they have two votes}, Journal = {Journal of Elections, Public Opinion and Parties}, Volume = {30}, Number = {4}, Pages = {466-483}, Year = {2020}, Month = {October}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/17457289.2018.1560301}, Abstract = {This paper introduces a model of vote choice in mixed-member proportional representation systems where electors cast two votes. Despite the growing popularity of mixed systems around the world, a recent stream of literature suggests that the candidate vote contaminates the list vote, inducing the type of behavior observed under majority rule. We propose a new approach to account for these so-called “contamination” effects, a phenomenon that we define as a causal influence making choices more similar across the vote decisions. Since causality entails a time ordering, we argue that contamination arises only when voters choose sequentially. By making use of new survey questions asking respondents about the timing of vote decisions, we can estimate the magnitude of these contamination effects directly. The model is tested using Bayesian multinomial probit models with survey data from the 2013 federal election in Germany. A key contribution of this paper is to show that contamination effects are present only among voters with lower levels of education, and work primarily from the list vote to the candidate vote. We also test a number of predictions about the determinants of the two vote choices in mixed systems.}, Doi = {10.1080/17457289.2018.1560301}, Key = {fds341781} } %% Papers Accepted @article{fds154654, Author = {J.
