  • 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.

  • 2013-2014 Wisconsin Blue Book
    STATISTICS: HISTORY 677 HIGHLIGHTS OF HISTORY IN WISCONSIN History — On May 29, 1848, Wisconsin became the 30th state in the Union, but the state’s written history dates back more than 300 years to the time when the French first encountered the diverse Native Americans who lived here. In 1634, the French explorer Jean Nicolet landed at Green Bay, reportedly becoming the first European to visit Wisconsin. The French ceded the area to Great Britain in 1763, and it became part of the United States in 1783. First organized under the Northwest Ordinance, the area was part of various territories until creation of the Wisconsin Territory in 1836. Since statehood, Wisconsin has been a wheat farming area, a lumbering frontier, and a preeminent dairy state. Tourism has grown in importance, and industry has concentrated in the eastern and southeastern part of the state. Politically, the state has enjoyed a reputation for honest, efficient government. It is known as the birthplace of the Republican Party and the home of Robert M. La Follette, Sr., founder of the progressive movement. Political Balance — After being primarily a one-party state for most of its existence, with the Republican and Progressive Parties dominating during portions of the state’s first century, Wisconsin has become a politically competitive state in recent decades. The Republicans gained majority control in both houses in the 1995 Legislature, an advantage they last held during the 1969 session. Since then, control of the senate has changed several times. In 2009, the Democrats gained control of both houses for the first time since 1993; both houses returned to Republican control in 2011.

The Informal Factors that are Conducive to the Passage of a Participatory Amendment Connor Huydic POLS 4997W March 24, 2020 Honors Thesis Honors Advisor: Professor Matthew Singer Thesis Supervisor: Professor Jeffrey Dudas Abstract: Hundreds of Constitutional revisions are proposed in our national legislature every year, yet only twenty-seven have been ratified as amendments in the 243-year history of the United States. The Constitution outlines the formal factors required to ratify an amendment, but this paper will focus on the informal factors that are integral to the eventual passage of a participatory amendment. Through case studies of the Nineteenth and Twenty-Sixth Amendments, this thesis examines the factors that contributed to the ratification of these amendments to find similarities in the circumstances that helped propel these bills to eventual adoption as amendments. Non-radical social movements, participation in war efforts, and backlash against radical protests emerge as some important factors conducive to the ratification of such amendments.

I have friends who graduated from Ole Miss ten years ago, and they still go to almost every game, both home and away. Most people aren't that fanatical, but I can't remember a fall in Memphis that did not include at least a couple of football games and accompanying parties. Here's the rundown on pertinent.games for this weekend. Ole Miss (the University of Mississippi, located in Oxford) plays Southern Mississippi at Hattiesburg. This is a fierce in-state rivalery.

    RIPON SPECIAL POST-ELECTION ISSUE WITH REPORTS ON ALL 50 STATES November 15, 1974 Vol. X, No. 16 50 CENTS COMMENTABY: The GOP IS THERE STILL HOPE FOR 'REPUBLICANS? by Dick Behn What was clear in the 1974 election results was not so much what the voters liked as what they disliked. Clearly, they did not like Richard Nixon, Republicans, and Watergate. It was not so much that they liked Democrats much more, but they liked Republicans far less. The economy alone would have had a disastrous impact on Republicans. Based on past elec­ tions and the six percent unemployment rate, the GOP could have been expected to lose as many as 30 congressional seats. But the additional congressional losses, the devastating results in the gubernatorial elections, and the pathetic performance of the GOP in legislative contests can only be attributed to Watergate and its aftermath. True, many able Republicans chose not to risk their political careers in 1974, but even capable Republican candidates felt the brunt of the voters' wrath. ~ In the Northeast, Watergate's impact was obvious. Vermont has not had a Democratic sena- tor since the Civil War; it now has one. Among the Republican congressional losses were one seat in New Hampshire, one in Massachusetts, one in Connecticut, five in New York, four in New Jersey, one in Pennsylvania, and one in Maryland. The GOP lost three governorships{New York, Massachusetts, and Connecticut) and nearly lost a fourth. Republicans were simply decimated at the legislative level; only in Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, and New York does the GOP still control at least one house.
