Moore In my dissertation, I analyze the motivations behind a country's decision to call for the removal of another state's government, a serious challenge to state sovereignty and non-intervention principles. I construct a model explaining the initiation and escalation of these “regime claims” in the Americas. I find that states are motivated by two factors: (1) threats to an otherwise acceptable status quo, and (2) the opportunity to improve an unacceptable set of bilateral relations. Additionally, countries calculate the probability that they can oust another leader with a claim or militariZed action. I use logistic regression techniques to test a series of hypotheses derived from this theoretical model, finding that threats and opportunities drive claim initiation, but evaluations of the probability for success determine whether countries militariZe such claims.

    WISCONSIN HISTORICAL SOCIETY An Oral History Interview with ELLEN PROXMIRE First of two interviews Interviewer: .Anita Hecht, Life History Services Recording Date: November 18, 2008 Place: Washington DC. Length: 2.0 hours Ellen Imogene Hodges was raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and in 1945 married Wisconsin native Warren Sawall. They moved to Madison, Wisconsin, where she earned her BA from the University of Wisconsin in 1948. Six years later she and Sawall were divorced. In the early 1950s, she became active in the Democratic Organizing Committee in Madison, eventually becoming the Democratic Party's executive secretary. In 1956, she attended the Democratic National Convention in Chicago with William Proxmire. Each had two children, each was divorced, and each was committed to Democratic politics. During an evening walk in Grant Park, Proxmire suggested they marry, which they did on December 1, 1956. In 1957, her husband was elected to the U.S. Senate and the family moved to Washington.

In 1963 she published a memoir, One Foot in Washington: the Perilous Life of a Senator's Wife. In 1967 Proxmire started her own business, Wonderful Weddings, which expanded into a successful event planning business handling major social events in Washington. In 1989, after Sen.

  • From: Anniken Williams, Public Policy Polling® To
    From: Anniken Williams, Public Policy Polling® To: Interested Parties Subject: Tony Evers Democrat’s Top Choice in 2018 Election Preview; Voters Believe Evers Has Best Chance to Beat Walker Date: January 11, 2018 A new Public Policy Polling survey finds that the Wisconsin Superintendent of Public Instruction and Democratic candidate for Governor, Tony Evers, is the top choice for Democrats in the 2018 primary election. In a hypothetical preview of this election, Evers holds a sizeable lead with the plurality of voters (29%) supporting him increasing to 33% after learning more about him. Initially, 28% of voters were unsure of who they would vote for and this decreased to 17%. The closest candidates behind Evers are Kathleen Vinehout who received 11% initially and Paul Soglin who received 12% of the vote after voters learned more about him. With his favorability rating at 60%, it is no surprise that a plurality (35%) of Wisconsin Democratic voters think Evers has the best chance of beating Scott Walker in November. Evers’ lead is built on by strong support among a wide array of demographics, such as a plurality of women (34%), men (33%), very (33%) and somewhat (37%) liberal Democrats, moderate Democrats (32%), somewhat conservative Democrats (26%), white voters (35%), voters age 18 to 45 (37%), 46 to 65 (30%), and older than 65 (36%), after they were given more information about him. Key findings from the survey include: - Wisconsin Democratic voters have definite issues they would like the next Governor to focus on. Health care is the most important issue to 29% of Wisconsinites, and education follows closely behind that at 23%.
