    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Effectiveness of Campaign Messages On Turnout and Vote Choice A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science by Sylvia Yu Friedel 2013 ©Copyright by Sylvia Yu Friedel 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Effectiveness of Campaign Messages On Turnout and Vote Choice by Sylvia Yu Friedel Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Lynn Vavreck, Chair In this dissertation, I study campaign effects on turnout and vote choice. I analyze different campaign messages and the way they affect voters across various situations. First, through an online survey experiment, I study the impact of campaign messages and ideological cues on voters as they make inferences on candidates. Next, through a field experiment, I test whether microtargeted messages or general messages on the economy have any effect on turnout. Lastly, using online survey data, I examine how cross-pressured voters behave electorally when holding an opposing party’s position on social issues. These three studies indicate that different messages do, in fact, matter. Furthermore, voters are not fools—they are reasoning and rational. While partisanship does continue to heavily impact voting decisions, voters do consider issue positions and different voting dimensions (i.e., social, economic, moral). In light of this, campaigns should continue their efforts to persuade and inform the electorate. ii The dissertation

  • Breaking the Bank Primary Campaign Spending for Governor Since 1978
    Breaking the Bank Primary Campaign Spending for Governor since 1978 California Fair Political Practices Commission • September 2010 Breaking the Bank a report by the California Fair Political Practices Commission September 2010 California Fair Political Practices Commission 428 J Street, Suite 620 Sacramento, CA 95814 Table of Contents Executive Summary 3 Introduction 5 Cost-per-Vote Chart 8 Primary Election Comparisons 10 1978 Gubernatorial Primary Election 11 1982 Gubernatorial Primary Election 13 1986 Gubernatorial Primary Election 15 1990 Gubernatorial Primary Election 16 1994 Gubernatorial Primary Election 18 1998 Gubernatorial Primary Election 20 2002 Gubernatorial Primary Election 22 2006 Gubernatorial Primary Election 24 2010 Gubernatorial Primary Election 26 Methodology 28 Appendix 29 Executive Summary s candidates prepare for the traditional general election campaign kickoff, it is clear Athat the 2010 campaign will shatter all previous records for political spending. While it is not possible to predict how much money will be spent between now and November 2, it may be useful to compare the levels of spending in this year’s primary campaign with that of previous election cycles. In this report, “Breaking the Bank,” staff of the Fair Political Practices Commission determined the spending of each candidate in every California gubernatorial primary since 1978 and calculated the actual spending per vote cast—in 2010 dollars—as candidates sought their party’s nomination. The conclusion: over time, gubernatorial primary elections have become more costly and fewer people turnout at the polls. But that only scratches the surface of what has happened since 19781. Other highlights of the report include: Since 1998, the rise of the self-funded candidate has dramatically increased the cost of running for governor in California.

    Celinda Lake President Memorandum Alysia Snell Partner To: Interested Parties From: Lake Research Partners Michael Perry Subject: California Survey Results Partner Date: March 4, 2009 David Mermin Partner The new Lake Research Partners survey1 of likely 2010 California voters shows a deep dissatisfaction with the direction of the state and a real sense of crisis for voters about their Robert G. Meadow, Ph.D. Partner economic future. Our polling shows Attorney General Jerry Brown leading the pack among likely 2010 Democratic primary voters, followed by Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and San Daniel R. Gotoff Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, with over a quarter undecided. In hypothetical 2010 general Partner election matchups, California voters would choose Brown or Newsom over either potential Joshua E.

Just how much do they need to raise for the general-election race? In elections held in 2003 and 2004, state House seats attracted $104,000, on average across the country, while state Senate seats brought in an average of $221,000. But that was mere pocket change for some races. 78 legislative races in 12 states hit the million- dollar mark in the general election. Together, these races brought in nearly $155 million, or 20 percent of the $758 million raised in all general-election legislative races. California led the pack with 27 races in which candidates raised more than $1 million combined for the general-election race. Illinois placed a distant second, with 12 million-dollar races. Texas was third, with nine races, while New York had eight. Of the 12 states with million-dollar races, five had no contribution limits — Illinois, Indiana, Oregon, Pennsylvania and Texas. For a list of all million-dollar legislative races in each of the 12 states, see Appendix A. The exorbitant price tag of these races was due to a variety of factors. More than one-third of the races — or 28 of the 78 — took place in historically-expensive districts.1 In others, the power of incumbency played a key role.
