The Subcommittee on Legislation and National Se- curity will come to order. Today is the beginning of a series of hearings on budget process reform proposals before the committee, with a number of Members seeking to testify. We have our distinguished chairman of the Budget Committee here already, and so we will make some opening statements and proceed as quickly as we can. The committee will consider the creation of a deficit "lockbox" in which discretionary caps are automatically lowered by the amount of an amendment to reduce spending in a tax or appropriation bill. Other options address spending controls for entitlement pro- grams,

  • 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.

ABSTACT The Northeast has been a Democratic stronghold over the past sixty years, yet it is also a region that has many ideologically moderate Republicans who have traditionally voted for more moderate Republican Congressional representatives. Despite the region’s Democratic trend there are a few congressional districts that remained solidly Republican into the 1990s and 2000s. However, even these Republican incumbents eventually lost their seats to the Democratic Party. I examine those four districts specifically and ask whether or not a recent increase of conservatism in the Republican Party contributed to these once solid, moderate Republican districts finally becoming Democratic. I hypothesize that the Republican conservative shift did not please some of the more moderate constituents of these districts who in turn voted their Republican representatives out of office. I use ticket-splitting as an indicator of partisan change and all the districts had more Republican ticket-splitting than the national average. Once the Republican congressmen had lost their seats, the ticket-splitting was less significant, indicating that voters who had previously split their Republican tickets had permanently left the Party.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACTS: Ashley Berke Public Relations Manager 215.409.6693 [email protected] U.S. REPRESENTATIVE PATRICK MURPHY DISCUSSES HIS RISE TO CONGRESS AT THE NATIONAL CONSTITUTION CENTER Philadelphia, PA (January 28, 2008) - The National Constitution Center welcomes U.S. Representative Patrick J. Murphy, the first Iraq War veteran to be elected to the United States Congress, to discuss his new book, Taking the Hill: From Philly to Baghdad to the United States Congress, on Monday, February 18 at 6:30 p.m. Admission is FREE, but reservations are required and can be made by calling 215.409.6700. In Taking the Hill, Murphy talks about his family and his belief that the American dream is still within reach. Murphy stresses the joy and necessity he feels to serve others, including family, students, community, fellow soldiers, and the nation. Patrick J. Murphy represents Pennsylvania's 8th Congressional district. The Irish American son of a Philadelphia policeman, Murphy grew to become a community college student and then an army officer, lawyer, and the youngest professor at West Point. He served in Iraq as a captain in the elite 82nd Airborne “All-Americans” where he earned a Bronze Star for service and successfully prosecuted one of Muqtada al- Sadr's top lieutenants. Returning from Iraq, Murphy, a political novice, narrowly defeated freshman Republican incumbent Mike Fitzpatrick in one of the nation’s most closely watched races in 2006. -MORE- ADD ONE/PATRICK MUPRHY Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky will moderate the event. Margolies-Mezvinsky is a professor at the Fels Institute of Government at the University of Pennsylvania and the chair of Women’s Campaign International, a group that provides advocacy training for women throughout the world.
