  • Honor Final Draft
    Advocating for Students with Exceptional Needs in Public Education By: Cassandra Fenton Project Description When creating this project, my goal was to combine my knowledge and experiences from my major in political science and my participation in the teacher certification program. To that end, this project is a political activism campaign that seeks to empower those in the education field, specially advocates for students with exceptional needs, to exercise their political voice. I have too often felt the sentiment of disenfranchisement by those are not actively involved in politics. In order to address this negative perception of politics and government, my project strives to inform professionals in the education field of their ability and right to exercise their political voice. Those in the field are the most equipped to advise policy surrounding special education, and this expertise can be of great use for politicians. The primary component of my project are two issue letters that can be sent to representatives to advocate for the rights of students with exceptional needs. The first letter tackles the issue of lack of adequate funding for special education by the state. The second letter addresses the general disrespect for the teaching profession as well many of the obstacles teachers must overcome to educate their students effectively. While these letters can be sent as is, they are meant to inspire professionals in the field to share their own expertise with their representatives. I have also included a graph to demonstrate that a vote carries more weight at lower levels of government, for which less people come out to vote, as opposed to the highest offices, which attract the greatest voter turnout.

  • 2013 New Jersey Election Results
    2013 New Jersey Election Results SUMMARY As indicated by all of the pre-election polls Governor Chris Christie (R) cruised to victory over challenger State Senator Barbara Buono (D). With this significant re-election victory the Governor’s 2016 national aspirations become even more realistic. At the same time Chris Christie’s win did not result in down ballot coattails, both houses of the New Jersey Legislature remained under Democratic control with only two Republican gains in the Assembly. GOVERNOR As expected, Governor Chris Chirstie (R) easily won re-election for a second term as Governor of the State of New Jersey over challenger State Senator Barbara Buono (D) by a resounding margin of 60% to 38%. The Governor carried every county in the state with the exception of the traditional democratic strongholds of Essex and Hudson. Even in those democratic areas Buono’s margin of victory lagged far behind normal pluralities. LEGISLATURE Targeted Districts 1st Legislative District (Cape May and parts of Atlantic and Cumberland Counties) Incumbent State Senator Jeff Van Drew (D) withheld a significant challenge from Susan Schmidt (R) winning the district with 59% to 40% percent of the vote and Assemblyman Bob Andrzejcak retained his seat with 27% of the vote. However - Republicans may have picked up one seat with Cumberland County Freeholder Sam Fiocchi (R) defeating incumbent Assemblyman Nelson Albano (D). The incumbent faced criticism since The Star-Ledger reported how he used his position to try to get out of a speeding ticket. Since the difference between the candidates is only 1284 votes a recount is possible.

  • Why Machine Vs. Reform Has Still Not Withered Away: Regime Conflict After the First (And Second) Black Mayor
    Keiser 1 WHY MACHINE VS. REFORM HAS STILL NOT WITHERED AWAY: REGIME CONFLICT AFTER THE FIRST (AND SECOND) BLACK MAYOR Richard A. Keiser rkeiser@carleton.edu Department of Political Science Carleton College Northfield, MN 55057 Paper Presented at the 2011 Annual Meeting of the Midwest Political Science Association, The Palmer House, Chicago, Illinois, March 29-April 3, 2011. Not for quotation without permission of the author. All urban scholars are familiar with the distinction between machine and reform politics. These concepts have been a staple of the field for most of the 20th century and sections of the most popular textbooks are devoted to these concepts. Their application, however, is relegated to historical studies of mid-century ethnic politics or to fleeting references about Chicago and the Daley family. Usage of the concept of machine politics has atrophied in the scholarly world, particularly as minority politicians have replaced white- ethnic mayors. Wolfinger drew the important and oft-forgotten distinction between political machines, the complex and sometimes centralized organizations that boasted hierarchical, clientelistic precinct and ward organizations and machine politics, which may be practiced by centralized party organizations, party factions, or personalistic organizations. Following Wolfinger (1972: 366), I define machine politics as "the manipulation of certain incentives to partisan political participation: favoritism based on political criteria Keiser 2 in personnel decisions, contracting, and administration of the laws." Hiring that is based on relationships rather than merit testing and that rewards friendship and electoral allegiance is typically an indicator of machine politics; this machine-style hiring can characterize blue- or white-collar jobs.
