  • Ag Districts Get Focus in Battle for Congress
    April 15, 2020 Volume 16, Number 15 Ag districts get focus in battle for Congress If Republicans have any hope of winning control of the U.S. House this fall, they’ll have to start by winning a series of major agricultural districts Democrats won in 2018. Of the top 100 House districts in terms of farm production, seven are rated as toss-ups by the Cook Political Report. Six of the seven are held by Democrats, including House Agriculture Committee Chairman Collin Peterson's 7th District seat in Minnesota. The influential chairmanship is held in high regard - a title he could retain unless the House flips back to Republican. The lone Republican tossup seat belongs to Rep. Rodney Davis, whose 13th District in central Illinois includes the university towns of Champaign and Urbana as well as swath of one of the nation’s most productive corn and soybean-growing regions. Three of the tossup ag seats are next door in Iowa, including seats that first-term Reps. Cindy Axne and Abby Finkenauer won in 2018 by ousting GOP incumbents. The third Iowa seat is being vacated by Democratic Rep. Dave Loebsack. The two other tossup seats are in California and New Mexico. In California’s 21st District, which ranks fourth nationally in farm revenue according to the latest Agriculture Department census, first-term Rep. TJ Cox faces a rematch with Republican David Valadao, whom Cox ousted in 2018. www.Agri-Pulse.com 1 In New Mexico’s 2nd District, which covers the southern half of the state, first-term Democratic Rep.

    “The Meaning of the 2012 Election,” the pre-edit version of Chapter 9 in Michael Nelson (ed.), The Elections of 2012 (Washington, DC: Congressional Quarterly Press, 2013) David R. Mayhew The nation’s fifty-seventh presidential election has come and gone. What are we to make of it? I address the shape of the election, the political context surrounding it and brought by it, and the policy implications of it. Election patterns for the House and Senate as well as the presidency are taken up. The General Shape of the Election: Incumbency Prevails Overwhelmingly, this was a personal incumbency election. Possibly it set a new standard in that respect. Across all the elective institutions, if you held an office and ran for it again you were exceedingly likely to keep it. It was like a Wall Street firm at Christmas. There were bonuses for virtually everybody. There was little “edge” to the 2012 election. It was not driven by background forces like the Iraq war in the midterm of 2006,1 the Wall Street crash (and Iraq, still) in the contest of 2008,2 or a blowback against unpopular legislative enactments, notably ObamaCare, in the midterm of 2010.3 (The term “ObamaCare” started out as invidious, but the president has warmed to it himself, and it has a pleasing snappiness, so I use it here.)4 Those three elections had “edge.” But in 2012 the voters seemed to recede into a stance of default, exhausted perhaps, for one thing, by the 1 Gary C.

  • GBA Strategies
    To: Interested Parties From: GBA Strategies Date: September 28, 2012 Bustos Surging in IL-17 Democrat Cheri Bustos is surging in her race against incumbent Republican Congressman Bobby Schilling in Illinois’ new 17th congressional district. A new survey1 of 600 likely voters shows Bustos has closed the gap dramatically since advertising in the campaign began, pulling to within 45 – 47 percent—well within the survey’s margin of error. In a vote simulation where undecided voters are allocated by their partisanship, Bustos and Schilling are completely tied 49 - 49 percent. Last month, before Bustos introduced herself in television commercials, Congressman Schilling released a poll indicating he held a 13-point, 50 – 37 percent2 lead. Earlier this year, our poll also observed the better-known Schilling holding an early 10-point lead3. That advantage is now effectively gone, as voters are finding out more about both candidates. In August, Schilling’s campaign said that Bustos was “quickly running out of time” to change the race. But the race is changing—quickly. Not only has Bustos moved to within the margin of error against Schilling, but the environment favors Democrats in the 17th. President Obama leads Governor Mitt Romney by a wide 54 – 41 percent margin in this race. Despite a wave of negative ads from Schilling and Washington Republicans that the Quad-City Times called “reckless, irresponsible fiction,” this race is moving in Bustos’ direction and with less than 6 weeks remaining she has the clear momentum. 1 Survey of 600 likely voters conducted by GBA Strategies September 24-26, 2012.

  • Thomson Prison Sale Hits Another Snag
    Illinois prison sale hits another snag - Chicago Tribune http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2012-07-04/news/ct-met-quinn-congres... Front Page News Sports Business Entertainment Opinion Lifestyle 12 Home > Featured Articles Illinois prison sale hits another snag July 04, 2012 | By Rick Pearson, Chicago Tribune reporter Recommend 0 Tweet 0 0 The state's effort to sell a northwestern Illinois prison to the federal government, stalled in Washington for years over fears that Guantanamo Bay terrorism detainees would be transferred stateside, is now caught up in a squabble among congressional Republicans. The latest wrinkle in the Thomson prison sale to generate millions for a cash-starved state government came late last week. Ten of the state's Republican congressmen wrote to Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn, asking him to lower the price to try to win support from a balking and powerful House GOP colleague. Quinn's office and home-state President Barack Obama's administration already have agreed on a $165 million price, below the $220 million that the little-used prison was appraised at but $25 million more than it cost to build in 2001. The fate of Thomson and the promise of more than 1,000 jobs in northwestern Illinois involve Rep. Bobby Schilling of Colona, a freshman tea party Republican in a targeted contest who desperately wants the sale of the little-used prison to go through as he seeks re-election. It also involves Rep. Rep. Frank Wolf of Virginia, a powerful veteran Republican who chairs a House subcommittee that oversees prison spending. Wolf opposes the prison purchase because of fears that the Obama White House wants to move detainees there from Cuba despite a law against it and assurances by administration officials.
