  • The Long Red Thread How Democratic Dominance Gave Way to Republican Advantage in Us House of Representatives Elections, 1964
    THE LONG RED THREAD HOW DEMOCRATIC DOMINANCE GAVE WAY TO REPUBLICAN ADVANTAGE IN U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ELECTIONS, 1964-2018 by Kyle Kondik A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Baltimore, Maryland September 2019 © 2019 Kyle Kondik All Rights Reserved Abstract This history of U.S. House elections from 1964-2018 examines how Democratic dominance in the House prior to 1994 gave way to a Republican advantage in the years following the GOP takeover. Nationalization, partisan realignment, and the reapportionment and redistricting of House seats all contributed to a House where Republicans do not necessarily always dominate, but in which they have had an edge more often than not. This work explores each House election cycle in the time period covered and also surveys academic and journalistic literature to identify key trends and takeaways from more than a half-century of U.S. House election results in the one person, one vote era.

    Page 1 of 145 CODEBOOK APPENDIX FILE 1982 MERGED METHODS FILE USER NOTE: This file has been converted to electronic format via OCR scanning. As as result, the user is advised that some errors in character recognition may have resulted within the text. >> ABOUT THE EXPRESSIONS IN THE 1982 QUESTIONNAIRE (NAME Y X, Y. OR Z) The 1982 tIME sERIES questionnaire made provisions to have interviewers fill in district/state candidate names in blank slots like the one depicted above. A comprehensive list of HOUSE, SENATE and GOVERNOR candidate and incumbent names was prepared for each of the 173 districts in the sample and the interviewers used the lists to pre-edit names where appropriate depending on the district of interview. These candidate lists are reproduced in the green pages section of this documentation. The (NAME #) expression will generally list more than one candidate number. For any given district, however, one of two possibilities will hold: 1) there will be one and only one name in the district candidate list qualifying for inclusion on the basis of the numbers listed in the expression; or 2) there will be no number in the district candidate list matching any of the numbers in the expression. An instance of no matching numbers arises for a question about the candidate challenging a district incumbent when, in fact, the incumbent is running unopposed. Interviewers were instructed to mark "NO INFO" those questions involving unmatched candidate numbers in the (NAME #) expression. In the candidate list, each candidate or incumbent is assigned a number or code. Numbers beginning with 1 (11-19) are for the Senate, numbers beginning with 3 (31-39) are for the House of Representatives, and numbers beginning with 5 (51-58) are for governors.

  • The Political Process
    1980-81 Institute of Politics John F.Kennedy School of Government Harvard University PROCEEDINGS Institute of Politics 1980-81 John F. Kennedy School of Government Harvard University FOREWORD Here is Proceedings '81, the third edition of this annual retrospective of the Institute of Politics. It serves the function of an annual report, but it is more than that. Part One, "Readings," is a sampling of written and spoken words drawn from the many formats of Institute activity: panel discussions and speeches in our Forum, dialogue among conference participants, an essay from a faculty study group, stu­ dent writing from the Harvard Political Review, personal evalutions from a summer intern and from our resident Fellows, and so forth. They contain impassioned rhetoric from controversial figures as well as opinion and analysis from less well- known individuals. This year we even have a poem and a little humor. Taken together, the "Readings," represent a good cross-section of what happens here. Part Two, 'Programs," is a record of all the events sponsored by the Institute dur­ ing the 1980-81 academic year. This section delineates the participation of hundreds of individuals who together make the Institute the lively, interactive place that it is. Although they are not all captured on tape or on paper, their contributions make this place come alive, and this listing is a recognition of that. Thus, the annual editions of Proceedings provide an ongoing portrait of the In­ stitute of Politics. I hope you find it both informative and enjoyable.

  • 2006 Primary Election Results
    The Hannah Report Special Election Edition May 3, 2006 2006 Primary Election Results Party caucuses held a few surprises Tuesday. There were a number of anticipated blow-outs and several nail-biters, including a seven-way Democratic primary in the 10th House District that was still too close to call at end of business Wednesday. Results remain officially "unofficial" in all races and do not reflect provisional voting. Absentee ballots were also out in Cuyahoga County, where the election board was forced to count votes by hand in the 10th District and other races. A disclaimer at the secretary of state's website notes that results will be final 81 days after the date on which county boards of elections have all completed official canvases, which must be no later than May 23, 2006. Statewide Races U.S. Rep. Ted Strickland (D-Ohio) easily overcame his opponent to win the Democratic caucus for governor by a factor of four. Bryan Flannery was unable to capitalize on allegations concerning a former Strickland staffer arrested for public indecency. On the Republican side, Secretary of State Ken Blackwell banked on a well-organized and financially generous grassroots effort to pass Attorney General Jim Petro for the gubernatorial nomination. In the attorney general campaign, Sen. Tim Grendell (R-Chesterland) acknowledged the inevitability of former attorney general Betty Montgomery's bid for another Republican nomination to her old job, conceding early Tuesday to the sitting auditor. Among Democrats, former Cleveland law director Subodh Chandra won numerous newspaper endorsements -- though not his party's -- for attorney general, which was instead claimed by leading workers' comp critic Sen.

  • Jamie L. Whitten Collection Series 21: Special Letters Scrapbooks
    Jamie L. Whitten Collection Series 21: Special Letters Scrapbooks This series consists of letters and other documents set aside in scrapbooks because Representative Jamie Whitten or his office staff determined them to be “special.” They are a mix of commendations, reports on Whitten, letters from prominent individuals and congressional colleagues, and postal cachets. As a result this series documents highlights of Whitten’s career between 1932 and 1994. Archivists removed the contents from scrapbooks to improve preservation and access since the adhesive and plastic covers on the album pages prevented review of multi-page documents. Documents are described at the item-level. BOX 1 Folder: Contents of “Special Letters Scrapbook 1932-1956” Typed manuscript “Special Letters and Other Items Compiled by Jamie L. Whitten, D. Miss.
