Product Description
The longest continuous majority in the history of the U.S. House of Representatives came to a dramatic close with the 1994 midterm elections. The Democratic Party had controlled the House for forty yearstwo and a half times as long as any previous majority. In Cheap Seats, James E. Campbell considers the reasons why the Democrats dominated House elections for four decades and why they ultimately lost that control. Examining the structural advantages that helped congressional Democrats, Campbell finds that their unprecedented success in the House was due in no small measure to a favorable election system, an advantage in the way in which votes are translated into House seats. His straightforward analysis indicates that Democrats consistently win most of the verylowturnout districts, or "cheap seats." In fact, because of the partys continued hold on such districts, the new Democratic minority is considerably larger than it would otherwise have been. Cheap Seats is a thorough and innovative investigation into the electoral systems impact on partisan politics and representation in Congress. Campbell presents an impressive array of evidence, including both quantitative analysis of election returns from 1936 to 1994 and indepth studies of several cheapseat districts. He also explores the important theoretical issues of representation that cheap seats raise and offers several proposals to reform the system. This wellwritten and provocative volume is accessible to anyone... | James Campbell CHEAP SEATS: The Democratic Party's Advantage in U.S. House
