We Are One: The Social Maintenance of Black Democratic Party Loyalty
Despite growing ideological diversity within the group, black Americans have maintained their overwhelmingly unified support for the Democratic Party. We argue that black Democratic partisanship is upheld, in part, through black Americans' use of social sanctions (both positive and negative) to encourage compliance with a group norm of Democratic Party support. Leveraging the exogenous assignment of racial social context provided by the race of a…
The inferential opportunity of specificity: Theory and empirical causality in American Political Development
The Woman Suffrage Movement in America: A Reassessment
This book departs from familiar accounts of high-profile woman suffrage activists whose main concern was a federal constitutional amendment. It tells the story of woman suffrage as one involving the diverse politics of women across the country as well as the incentives of the men with the primary political authority to grant new voting rights - those in state legislatures. Through a mix of qualitative and quantitative evidence, the book explains …

Strengthening the Experimenter’s Toolbox: Statistical Estimation of Internal Validity
Experiments have become an increasingly common tool for political science researchers over the last decade, particularly laboratory experiments performed on small convenience samples. We argue that the standard normal theory statistical paradigm used in political science fails to meet the needs of these experimenters and outline an alternative approach to statistical inference based on randomization of the treatment. The randomization inference a…
A Latino on the Ballot: Explaining Coethnic Voting Among Latinos and the Response of White Americans
In recent campaigns, candidates have sought to attract votes from the growing Latino electorate through ethnic cues. Yet, we know very little about the impact of appeals to ethnicity. This article examines the role that ethnic cues play in shaping the political opinions and choices of Latinos, as well as the response of non-Hispanic White Americans (Anglos). We take up the simplest of group cues, the ethnicity of the candidate. We argue that cand…
Urban Politics in the State Arena
We seek to explain how states govern big cities. Political scientists' accounts of urban politics either fail to treat the state systematically or place state hostility at the center of such an account. Accounts by historians, by contrast, offer tools political scientists can use to theorize urban politics in the state arena. We use those tools, and we find that cities can manage the legislative process. This power starts with bill introduction a…
Pockets of Expertise: Institutional Capacity in Twentieth-Century State Legislatures
We examine the development of legislative capacity in U.S. state legislatures in the twentieth century. This capacity can be derived from the legislators themselves, or from institutions and practices. We consider both sources as we provide an account of the ragged and piecemeal development of legislative capacity in the states. We argue that most state legislatures have been neither entirely professional nor amateur, but rather have existed some…
Seeing Gender over the Short and Long Haul
One might break research questions about gender and politics over time into two basic categories. On the one hand, there are questions that speak to processes unfolding, perhaps rather slowly, over time. In this long-haul category, we might find studies of such things as generational shifts in patterns of attitudes about gendered political roles (Jennings 2006) or of the development of gendered national identities with evolving constitutional int…
The Legislative Politics of Congressional Redistricting Commission Proposals
Many politicians and reformers have suggested that allowing non- or bipartisan redistricting commissions to draw congressional districts will make elections more competitive and reduce partisan polarization. Although such commissions reduce the power of political parties and elected officials, they have been considered in 24 states from 1999 to 2006. We combine an analysis of national patterns of bill consideration with an intensive examination o…
Military Triumph, Racial Transcendence, and Colin Powell
A “black kid of no early promise,” Colin Powell became the youngest general in the U.S. Army, and then in short order national security advisor, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the nation’s secretary of state. What does this extraordinary story reveal about contemporary American political life? Analyzing surveys supplied by the National Election Study and the National Black Election Study, we first establish that Powell’s rapid rise to…
