The Politics of Congressional Elections
The Politics of Congressional Elections is the most authoritative and accessible introduction available on congressional elections and the electoral process. By pairing historical data analysis and original research with fundamental concepts of representation and responsibility, Carson and Jacobson help students develop the tools to evaluate Congress, as well as their own role in the electoral process.
The eleventh edition offers an engaging examination of congressional candidates, campaigns, and elections by incorporating coverage of the most recent elections and the changing roles of voters, incumbents, challengers, and campaign contributions. This edition also highlights the impact of the January 6th insurrection, inflation and the economy, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, infrastructure legislation, and the narrowing majorities in both chambers. Brought completely up-to-date with the latest data from the American National Election Study, the Cooperative Election Study, and the Federal Election Commission, and including coverage and analysis of the 2020 and 2022 elections, this seminal work continues to offer a systematic account of what goes on in congressional elections. Moreover, the authors' framing demonstrates how electoral politics reflect and shape other components of the American political system, with profound consequences for representative government.
Key revision highlights include:
- Updated coverage through the 2022 elections including congressional primaries
- Expanded analysis of campaign finance and voter behavior in recent elections
- Updated figures and tables, with color versions available in the e-book and PowerPoint slides
- Greater emphasis on nationalized politics and a return to more party-centered elections
- Enhanced analysis of congressional elections data back to the pre-Civil War era.
The Politics of Congressional Elections is the most authoritative and accessible introduction available on the topic.
