Card-Carrying Members on the Ballot
How members of Congress align with and promote the interests of their coalitional allies is a concern for academics and the public alike. To understand the relationship between interest groups and officeholders, we must examine group ties prior to a candidate’s electoral victory. From there, we can begin to evaluate the partisan dynamics and electoral implications of candidate-group alignments. How do Democrats and Republicans differ in terms of …
Separated by Politics? Disentangling the Dimensions of Discrimination
Primary Divisions
While central to theories of polarization and primary elections, surprisingly little evidence shows that partisans favor candidates who take ideologically consistent issue positions, above other considerations, in intraparty contests. In this study, we investigate how voters weigh policy and nonpolicy differences when evaluating same-party politicians, using novel conjoint experiments that manipulate the demographic, biographical, and issue infor…
What Goes with Red and Blue? Mapping Partisan and Ideological Associations in the Minds of Voters
How Quickly We Selectively Forget
Despite enormous variation in the order, positivity, and content of information that real‐world electoral campaigns present to voters, we know little about their interactive role in candidate evaluation. This study presents results from two multiwave experiments that varied the positivity of information, its order, and its personal or policy content and assessed its memorability and impact on evaluations over several days. Consistent with observa…
Seeing Red (or Blue)
Many Americans associate themselves with their political party in a deep, visceral way. Voter identification with a political party has powerful implications for not just how voters behave, but how there are exposed to and receive information about the world. We describe how this tying of one’s self-concept to a party, which can be analogous to die-hard sports fandom, plays a central role in political cognition. It leads voters identifying with t…
Disputed Ownership
Presidential Confidence in Crisis
Recent studies find that voters regularly punish presidents for seemingly unrelated events, despite a clear understanding of how these issues become tied to the president. We contend that the media plays an important role in creating this link. Testing this, we examined how the 2010 BP oil spill shaped evaluations of President Barack Obama, paying particular attention to news coverage to isolate the event's applicability to the president. We esti…
