In this brief paper we test V. 0. Key's (1949) notion of friends and neighbors voting. Gubernatorial and senatorial general election candidates from 46 states over the 1976 to 1982 period were examined and results indicate the average candidate polled 3.66 percentage points more of the general election vote in his or her than another candidate from the same party but different county could have expected to garner. Further, this home county advantage is maximized in Democratic nonincumbent candidates from less populated counties
