  • The Long Red Thread How Democratic Dominance Gave Way to Republican Advantage in Us House of Representatives Elections, 1964
    THE LONG RED THREAD HOW DEMOCRATIC DOMINANCE GAVE WAY TO REPUBLICAN ADVANTAGE IN U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ELECTIONS, 1964-2018 by Kyle Kondik A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Baltimore, Maryland September 2019 © 2019 Kyle Kondik All Rights Reserved Abstract This history of U.S. House elections from 1964-2018 examines how Democratic dominance in the House prior to 1994 gave way to a Republican advantage in the years following the GOP takeover. Nationalization, partisan realignment, and the reapportionment and redistricting of House seats all contributed to a House where Republicans do not necessarily always dominate, but in which they have had an edge more often than not. This work explores each House election cycle in the time period covered and also surveys academic and journalistic literature to identify key trends and takeaways from more than a half-century of U.S. House election results in the one person, one vote era.

    OFFIClf OF GENERAL COUNSEL m m -7 PH 3: U3 August 3,2018 MUR # Office of the General Counsel Federal Election Commission 1050 First Street, N.E. Washington, DC 20463 Dear OGC: I am filing a complaint against Bob Rackleff and the Bob Rackleff for Congress Campaign for a shortage of $16,000 for an agreed upon monthly retainer resulting in an illegal contribution. In April of 2017,1 received an email from Bob Rackleff asking my thoughts on his running for Congress in Florida's Second Congressional District. As a Media Consultant, I have handled his media buying for his Leon County Commissioners' races over 10-15 years. We came to an agreement in May that stated he would pay me according to the timeline (first of each month) and "as long as the money was raised." The original budget was between $1.5 million and $2 million. For the most part he was late in paying me. He also stated that "he would do his part." However, he did not. He refused to "dial for dollars" or hire a fundraiser. In addition, he refused to call personal friends, such as Chris Matthews, instead telling me to call him. 1 spoke with the pollster that 1 introduced him to and whom he had hired. He had a fundraiser that he thought would fit well with Bob. After several attempts to get him to talk to said fundraiser, he finally did. However, he said he didn't want to pay him upfront. 1 spoke with the fundraiser and he agreed to wait for payment of the first month's retainer ($3,500) until he had raised $7,000 (of the $200,000 he thought he could raise for him).
