  • The Gubernatorial Elections of 2015: Hard-Fought Races for the Open Seats by Jennifer M
    GOVERNORS The Gubernatorial Elections of 2015: Hard-Fought Races for the Open Seats By Jennifer M. Jensen and Thad Beyle Only three governors were elected in 2015. Kentucky, Louisiana and Mississippi are the only states that hold their gubernatorial elections during the year prior to the presidential election. This means that these three states can be early indicators of any voter unrest that might unleash itself more broadly in the next year’s congressional and presidential elections, and we saw some of this in the two races where candidates were vying for open seats. Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant (R) was elected to a second term, running in a state that strongly favored his political party. Both Kentucky and Louisiana have elected Democrats and Republicans to the governorship in recent years, and each race was seen as up for grabs by many political pundits. In the end, each election resulted in the governorship turning over to the other political party. Though Tea Party sentiments played a signifi- he lost badly to McConnell, he had name recog- cant role in the primary elections in Kentucky and nition when he entered the gubernatorial race as Louisiana, none of the general elections reflected an anti-establishment candidate who ran an out- the vigor that the Tea Party displayed in the 2014 sider’s campaign against two Republicans who had gubernatorial elections. With only two open races held elected office.

  • Gay Liberation Comes to Dixie—Slowly
    Alabama: Commandments, Amendments, and Defendants Patrick R. Cotter Alabama’s 2004 election was a quiet affair. Signs that a presidential campaign was occurring—candidate visits, partisan rallies, hard-hitting tele- vision commercials, or get-out-the-vote efforts—were largely missing from the state. The outcome of Alabama’s U.S. Senate race was a forgone conclu- sion from the beginning of the year. All of the state’s congressmen were easily reelected. Contests for the few state offices up for election in 2004 were generally both invisible and uncompetitive. The only part of the ballot that generated any interest—and even here it was limited—involved a pro- posed amendment to Alabama’s already long state constitution. Alabama’s 2004 election was also a clear Republican victory. Republi- cans George W. Bush and Richard Shelby easily carried the state in the presidential and U.S. Senate elections. The GOP kept it 5-to-2 advantage in Congressional seats. Republicans swept all the contested positions on the state Supreme Court. Alabama’s 2004 election campaign was not the first time the state had experienced a quiet presidential campaign. Nor was it the first in which Republicans did quite well. Both the 1988 and 2000 campaigns were also low-key affairs. Both were also campaigns that the GOP clearly won. These earlier low-key, Republican-winning, presidential campaigns did not significantly alter the state’s partisan politics. Rather, the close partisan balance that has characterized the state since the 1980s continued beyond these elections. (For descriptions of these earlier campaigns and analyses of recent Alabama politics see Cotter 1991; Cotter 2002; Ellington 1999; Cotter and Gordon 1999 and Stanley 2003).

United States, 500 U.S. 257, 273 (1991), a connection between a campaign contribution and an official action is a crime "only if the payments are made in return for an explicit promise or undertaking by the official to perform or not to perform an official act. In such situations the official asserts that his official conduct will be con- trolled by the terms of the promise or undertaking." Does this standard require proof of an "explicit" quid pro quo promise or undertaking in the sense of actually being communicated expressly, as various Circuits have stated; or can there be a conviction based instead only on the inference that there was an unstated and implied agreement, a state of mind, connecting the contribution and an official action? 2.

    Points from the Sworn On-the-Record Interview of Dana Jill Simpson by the House Judiciary Committee Staff 1. Ms. Simpson stated under oath that she adheres to and stands by the statements in her May 21, 2007, affidavit. (Pages 85-86) She testified: “What I understood, or what I believed Mr. Canary to be saying, was that he had had this ongoing conversation with Karl Rove about Don Siegelman, and that Don Siegelman was a thorn to them and basically he was going to – he had been talking with Rove. Rove had been talking with the Justice Department, and they were pursuing Don Siegelman as a result of Rove talking to the Justice Department at the request of Bill Canary.” (27) 2. Ms. Simpson described a 2005 conversation with Rob Riley in which Mr. Riley stated that, in late 2004, Karl Rove had contacted the Public Integrity Section of the Department of Justice to press for further prosecution of Don Siegelman, and had also stated that the case would be assigned to a federal judge who “hated” Mr. Siegelman and who would “hang Don Siegelman.” (50-57) According to Ms. Simpson, Mr. Riley stated: ? that the case against Don Siegelman in the Northern District had been “miserably messed up” by United States Attorney Alice Martin and had been dismissed by a federal Judge in 2004 (48-50); ? that, with that case out of the way, Mr. Siegelman was “the biggest threat” to Governor Bob Riley – Rob Riley’s father – in the coming 2006 Governor’s race (48); ? that, in late 2004, Bill Canary and Governor Riley had spoken to Karl Rove about Mr.

  • History of ALDOT
    Module 1 Read Ahead History of ALDOT Module 1: History of ALDOT Objectives After attending the training in Module 1, participants will be able to: • understand the history of ALDOT from birth out of corrections in 1911 until today. • identify the many changes that have occurred throughout the history of ALDOT. • understand the many reorganizations of areas, regions, divisions, and bureaus. Early History of ALDOT In 1911, the State Highway Commission was created under Governor Emmet O’Neal’s Administration (1911-1915). The State Highway Commission consisted of five commissioners and three regular employees. The State Highway Commission was organized along with an Oyster Commission and was initially housed in the cloak room of the Senate Chamber in the Alabma State Capitol. The first five Alabama State Highway Commission Members were Robert E. Spragins, Chairman, of Huntsville; John Craft of Mobile who later became Chairman of the 2nd Commission; V. B. Atkins of Selma; G.N. Mitcham, Professor of Civil Engineering at Auburn University; and Eugene A. Smith, State Geologist at the University of Alabama. Regular Members of the Commission were W.S. Keller, State Highway Engineer who had experience at the County Engineer level; Robert P. Boyd, Assistant State Highway Engineer who had experience at the County Engineer level; and C.L. Rabb, Clerk. Earliest Years Early highway executives in 1911 shared some of the same financial woes as their current counterparts. The Financial Act of 1911 appropriated $154,000 from the State Convict Fund. The Act allowed the funds to be used for construction of roads and for the overhead expenses of the state executives.

  • A Statistical Analysis of Possible Electronic Ballot Box Stuffing, the Case of Baldwin County Alabama Governor’S Race in 2002
    A Statistical Analysis of Possible Electronic Ballot Box Stuffing, The Case of Baldwin County Alabama Governor’s Race in 2002 By James H. Gundlach Auburn University Paper Presented at the Annual Meetings of The Alabama Political Science Association Troy, Alabama, April 11, 2003 The 2002 Governors race in Alabama erupted into controversy when Baldwin County first reported results that suggested that the democratic incumbent, Don Siegelman, had won and subsequently reported other results that gave the election to the republican challenger, Bob Riley by a margin of 3,120 votes out of 1,364,602 cast. In this paper I demonstrate how relatively simple statistical techniques can identify apparent systematic electronic manipulation of voting results. This paper consists of four parts. The first part is an overview of the election; the second part is an analysis of county level data that suggests that both sets of results from Baldwin County are anomalous. The third part of the paper is a set of analyses of results from voting districts that identifies and describes some clear patterns in the anomalous Baldwin County final results. The final part of the paper discusses the possibilities of electronic vote manipulation and suggests mechanisms for preventing it in the future. Some election background I first looked at the election results by dividing the state into two components, Baldwin County and the rest of the state. I then look at the results for the 1998 and 2002 Governor’s races for these two components. In the 1998 election Don Siegelman received 742,766 votes in the rest of Alabama compared to 533,772 votes for his the republican, Fob James.

  • Corruption Trial of Former Alabama Governor Starts Mon May 1, 2006 5:45 PM ET
    Print this article Close This Window Corruption trial of former Alabama governor starts Mon May 1, 2006 5:45 PM ET By Verna Gates MONTGOMERY, Alabama (Reuters) - Voters should decide the fate of Democratic former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman, who is campaigning for re-election while on trial on corruption charges, his attorney told the court on Monday. Siegelman. 60. is accused of trading political favors for gifts and donations during his term as governor of the southern U.S. state from 1999 to 2003. He called the charges against him a political attack by Republicans trying to thwart his attempt to win another term in the governor's mansion. "It's about this campaign by people who want to impact the outcome of the governor's race," Siegelman said as his trial began in U.S. District Court. The trial is expected to end before the June 6 primary election, when Siegelman faces Lt. Gov. Lucy Baxley in the race for the Democratic nomination. Siegelman is charged with bribery, extortion, obstructing justice, fraud and racketeering, and could face more than 50 years in prison if convicted. Prosecutors said Siegelman accepted cash, campaign contributions and even a motorcycle as bribes for arranging backdoor deals involving state business. Acting U.S. Attorney Louis Franklin said in opening statements that Siegelman had violated his oath to faithfully fulfill his duties. Three co-defendants are on trial with Siegelman, including former HealthSouth chief Richard Scrushy, who is accused of paying Siegelman a $500,000 bribe to win an appointment to a hospital regulatory board.
