  • The Pennsylvania State University Schreyer Honors College
    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE THE LAST OF THE NORTHEAST REPUBLICANS: AN INDIVIDUAL DISTRICT ANALYSIS OF HOW CHANGING PARTY IDEOLOGY CAN PUSH VOTERS AWAY JORDAN ELIZABETH JOHNSTON Spring 2010 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Political Science with honors in Political Science Reviewed and approved* by the following: Suzanne Chod Lecturer Thesis Supervisor Gretchen Casper Associate Professor of Political Science Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. ABSTACT The Northeast has been a Democratic stronghold over the past sixty years, yet it is also a region that has many ideologically moderate Republicans who have traditionally voted for more moderate Republican Congressional representatives. Despite the region’s Democratic trend there are a few congressional districts that remained solidly Republican into the 1990s and 2000s. However, even these Republican incumbents eventually lost their seats to the Democratic Party. I examine those four districts specifically and ask whether or not a recent increase of conservatism in the Republican Party contributed to these once solid, moderate Republican districts finally becoming Democratic. I hypothesize that the Republican conservative shift did not please some of the more moderate constituents of these districts who in turn voted their Republican representatives out of office. I use ticket-splitting as an indicator of partisan change and all the districts had more Republican ticket-splitting than the national average. Once the Republican congressmen had lost their seats, the ticket-splitting was less significant, indicating that voters who had previously split their Republican tickets had permanently left the Party.

SENATE RACE Defense Cuts Governor Gregg maintains that defense cuts are necessary but at a careful and cautious rate. The cuts he supports are at a level slightly higher than those proposed by the President, but lower than Bill Clinton1s defense cut proposal. The Governor's Democratic opponent, John Rauht wants a 50% defense cut over five years. None of the savings would be applied to the budget deficit but would instead go wholly to retraining programs. Governor Gregg believes that this drastic cut is irresponsible, would wreak economic havoc on New Hampshire's defense dependent industry1 would force the closing of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, and would cripple the nation's ability to respond to military threats.

  • Annual Report of the Town of Raymond, New Hampshire
    The Raymond Community Stewardship Committee Caretakers & Facilitators Of The Vision For The Future Established in July, 1992 by the Board of Selectmen as a permanent advisory committee of the Town of Raymond, our fifteen-member group of volunteers accepted a formidable challenge with enthusiasm. We are made up of eleven members at-large, plus one representative each from the Board of Selectmen, the Planning Board, the Conservation Commission, and the Raymond Industrial Development Corporation. As charged by the Selectmen, we are "to provide an orderly forum to discuss and consider matters that affect the town's public image, historic heritage, community spirit and public facilities planning." In addition, we are "to identify ways the town can leverage its assets to attract desirable business and industry in order to broaden its tax base." Formation of the committee grew out of Raymond's participation in the 1991 Governor's Commission on the 21st Century. Raymond was one of two communities chosen by the Office of State Planning to help the Commission develop a process and set of planning tools that could be used by communities state-wide, and that would enable them to direct the location, character and timing of their future development in order to 1.) conserve important natural resources, 2.) promote economic growth, and 3.) maintain the "rural" atmosphere that makes New Hampshire living so desirable. In January of '92 a series of intensely productive meetings took place between Raymond citizens and a Task Force of State Planning Officials and private-sector volunteers with expertise in banking, real estate, architecture, landscaping, conservation, the environment and historic preservation.

  • Couple Is Mainstay of Republican Politics in NH
    Couple is mainstay of Republican politics in N.H. By Shira Schoenberg Globe Correspondent/ September 1, 2011 AMHERST, N.H. - When Susan Duprey travels with Ann Romney, the wife of presidential candidate Mitt Romney, Duprey carries the Sharpie pens, hand sanitizer, sewing kit, and camera phone. When Duprey’s husband, Steve Duprey, traveled with 2008 presidential nominee John McCain, he had the pirate bandannas and eye patches, tropical hats in Florida, and cheesehead hats in Wisconsin. To Ann Romney, Susan Duprey has become a “close confidante’’ with a reputation as a problem solver, according to one top campaign aide. Traveling with McCain, Steve Duprey earned the title “morale officer’’ for the way he would joke around and hand out McCain-Palin hockey pucks or shot glasses - in addition to being a trusted adviser. The Dupreys carry to an extreme the type of citizen involvement that New Hampshire presidential campaigns rely on. They emphatically deny any aspirations for higher office, though he ran unsuccessfully for Congress in 1992. Between them, the two have worked on more than 30 national and state Republican campaigns since the 1970s. “For any campaign at a state or federal level, you would have both of them on a short list of activists you want helping,’’ said Charlie Arlinghaus, who was executive director of the state Republican Party when Steve Duprey was chairman. “They’re low maintenance and they do a lot of work.’’ Susan Duprey is the former president of the Devine Millimet law firm; her husband developed some of the biggest real estate projects in Concord, their hometown.

  • Three Strikes and You're Out. Congressman Wayne Owens Wants to Be Utah's Next U.S
    National Right to Work Committee 08WI Braddock Rd. 4Springfield.VA22160 6(800)325-7892 October 5, 1992 Dear Committee Member: Three strikes and you're out. Congressman Wayne Owens wants to be Utah's next U.S. Senator. In the last few months, I have Bent Congressman Owens a letters pleading with him to tell his constituents where he stands on Right to Work. I've even tried certified mail And m,Congressman Owens outright refuses to answer his 1992 Candidate Survey; despite your postcards, calls, and letters urging him to answer. Clearly, Congressman Owens is trying to hide his views on compulsory unionism. And since presidential front-runner Bill Clinton is vowing to sign Big Labor's entire political agenda into law, where Utah's Senators stand on Risht to Work is critical. Big Labor already has a veto-proof majority in t.he House of Representatives. And the U.S. Senate is teetering on the edge of falling totally under the control of union power brokers. If the union bosses ha-re their way, Taft-Hartley Section 14(b) will be repealed in the 103x3 Congress. As you know, if 14(b) is repealed, Utah's popular state Right to Work law will be automatically wiped out! But there is some good news. Cocgressman Owens's opponent, Bob Bennett, has vowed to represent the overwhelming majority of Utah citizens by promising 100% support for Right to Work. Would you please contact Mr. Owens and those running for the House of Representatives and tell them 75% of Utah citizens want them to support their Right to Work.
