The general thesis is that as competition increases in the electoral realm, changes result in the pattern of committee appointments and the organization of party caucuses. These changes, in turn, affect the formal organizational and institutional strategies of both political parties in the chamber. As these transformations unfold, patterns of roll call voting also change as a result.
