  • Speakership Elections Since 1860: the Rise of the Organizational Caucus*
    Speakership Elections since 1860: The Rise of the Organizational Caucus* Jeffery A. Jenkins Department of Politics University of Virginia [email protected] Charles Stewart III Department of Political Science Massachusetts Institute of Technology [email protected] [Authors’ Note: This paper represents a draft chapter (Chapter 7) of an in-progress book manuscript. As a result, the chapter builds on analyses and arguments in earlier chapters. This note is an attempt to provide readers with some quick-and-dirty background, so that the substance of this chapter makes more intuitive sense. The thrust of the book manuscript is twofold: (1) to examine how Congress was viewed as a instrument for mass party building in the antebellum era, via the control of House officer positions, namely the Speaker (who staffed committees and guided the policy process) but also the Printer (who was a great source of patronage and led the party’s propaganda efforts) and the Clerk (who controlled significant patronage and also wielded significant institutional power, especially at the start of a Congress); and (2) to document how control of the House’s initial organization was extremely difficult to achieve during the antebellum era. On this second point, an example is helpful: of the eleven speakership elections between 1839 and 1859, five required more than one ballot. And of those five, three were extremely contentious – choosing a speaker required three weeks and 61 ballots in 1849 (31st Congress), two months and 133 ballots in 1855-56 (34th Congress), and two months and 44 ballots in 1859-60 (36th Congress). Moreover, it was also not always possible to predict who would be elected an officer of the House even after the Speaker was chosen.
