S~UNITED STATES GENERAL ACCOUNTING OFFICE WASHINGTON, D.C. 20548 LOGISTICS AND COMMUNICATIONS DIVISION DIVONII IIW NOVEMBER 29,1979 B-168700 110978 Cl6 The Honorable John Glenn, United States Senate The Honorable Ronald M. Mottl, House of Representatives The Honorable Mary Rose Oakar, House of Representatives The Honorable Louis Stokes, House of Representatives The Honorable Charles A. Vanik, House of Representatives Subject:ERealinement of the Cleveland Defense Contract Administration Service Region](LCD-80-24) You requested that we review the Defense Logistics Agency's decision to merge the Defense Contract Administra- /- tion Service's Cleveland regional office into the Chicago -/regional office. Recent events have eliminated Chicago as a potential location, and as Admiral E. M. Kocher, Assistant Director, Defense Logistics Agency, advised you in his October 16, 1979, letter, the Agency has now decided to locate the consolidated office in Cleveland. The merger of these two offices is part of an overall Department of Defense plan. By reducing the number of Defense Contract Administration Service's regions from nine to five, Defense will reduce overhead and administrative costs and attain a more efficient support structure. The Agency pro- jected that this consolidation could save about $40 million over 5 years, about $18 million attributable to the Cleveland- Chicago consolidation. The Agency also projected that if the consolidated office was located in Chicago, about $1 million more could be saved. On October 11, 1979, our review team provided a briefing on the progress of our work. Our preliminary analysis showed that Chicago was economically more advantageous than Cleveland. However, the estimates and projections contained so many judg- ments and assumptions that a decision could not be based unequivocally on economic factors.

    Trump Success? Conventional Measures in the Era of an Unconventional President

    Trump Success? Conventional Measures in the Era of an Unconventional President Jon R. Bond Texas A&M University [email protected] and Manny Teodoro Texas A&M University [email protected] Prepared for Presentation at the 115th Annual Meeting & Exhibition of the American Political Science Association August 29 – September 1, 2019 Washington, DC Trump Success? Conventional Measures in the Era of an Unconventional President Abstract Conventional indicators reported in CQ’s 2017 Presidential Support Study show that President Trump racked up a “Record Success Rate”, winning 100 percent of House votes on which he expressed a position. Although presidency scholars have long recognized that winning roll call votes is not an indication of presidential influence, Trump’s unconventional style and his willful ignorance of Congress and basic details of the policies he “supports” lead us to question whether the results of roll call votes should even be interpreted as presidential success. Including this unconventional president in the study of a still small n of presidents requires innovative indicators that do not rely exclusively on traditional Presidential Support Scores that compare members on a static zero to 100 scale. Taking cues from FiveThirtyEight and from the field of sabermetrics, this paper presents two novel metrics that estimate whether House members’ support for the 11 elected presidents from Eisenhower to Trump is higher or lower than should be expected relative to differing political conditions. One metric, Support Above Expectations (SAE), estimates whether members’ presidential support is higher or lower than should be expected given electoral conditions, partisanship, polarization. This metric builds on 538’s “Trump plus-minus” score.
