Download or read book The African American Electorate written by Hanes Walton Jr and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2012-07-20 with total page 975 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pioneering work brings together for the first time in a single reference work all of the extant, fugitive, and recently discovered registration data on African American voters from Colonial America to the present. It features election returns for African American presidential, senatorial, congressional, and gubernatorial candidates over time. Rich, insightful narrative explains the data and traces the history of the laws dealing with the enfranchisement and disenfranchisement of African Americans. Topics covered include: - The contributions of statistical pioneers including Monroe Work, W.E.B. DuBois and Ralph Bunche - African American organizations, like the NAACP and National Equal Rights League (NERL) - Pioneering African American officeholders, including the few before the Civil War - Four influxes of African American voters: Reconstruction (Southern African American men), the Fifteenth Amendment (African American men across the country), the Nineteenth Amendment (African American female voters in 1920 election), and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 - The historical development of disenfranchisement in the South and the statistical impact of the tools of disenfranchisement: literacy clauses, poll taxes, and grandfather clauses. The African-American Electorate features more than 300 tables, 150 figures, and 50 maps, many of which have been created exclusively for this work using demographic, voter registration, election return, and racial precinct data that have never been collected and assembled for the public. An appendix includes popular and electoral voting data for African-American presidential, congressional, and gubernatorial candidates, and a comprehensive bibliography indicates major topic areas and eras concerning the African-American electorate. The African American Electorate offers students and researchers the opportunity, for the first time, to explore the relationship between voters and political candidates, identify critical variables, and situate African Americans' voting behavior and political phenomena in the context of America's political history.

Book Synopsis The History of American Electoral Behavior by : Joel H. Silbey
Download or read book The History of American Electoral Behavior written by Joel H. Silbey and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concentrating on the American historical experience, the contributors to this volume apply quantitative techniques to the study of popular voting behavior. Their essays address problems of improving conceptualization and classifications of voting patterns, accounting for electoral outcomes, examining the nature and impact of constraints on participation, and considering the relationship of electoral behavior to subsequent public policy. The writers draw upon various kind of data: time series of election returns, census enumerations that provide the social and economic characteristics of voting populations, and individual poll books and other lists that indicate whom the individual voters actually supported. Appropriate statistical techniques serve to order the data and aid in evaluating relationships among them. The contributions cover electoral behavior throughout most of American history, as reflected by collections in official and private archives. Originally published in 1978. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Book Synopsis A Century of Votes for Women by : Christina Wolbrecht
Download or read book A Century of Votes for Women written by Christina Wolbrecht and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-01-30 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How have American women voted in the first 100 years since the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment? How have popular understandings of women as voters both persisted and changed over time? In A Century of Votes for Women, Christina Wolbrecht and J. Kevin Corder offer an unprecedented account of women voters in American politics over the last ten decades. Bringing together new and existing data, the book provides unique insight into women's (and men's) voting behavior, and traces how women's turnout and vote choice evolved across a century of enormous transformation overall and for women in particular. Wolbrecht and Corder show that there is no such thing as 'the woman voter'; instead they reveal considerable variation in how different groups of women voted in response to changing political, social, and economic realities. The book also demonstrates how assumptions about women as voters influenced politicians, the press, and scholars.
Book Synopsis Analyzing Electoral History by : Jerome M. Clubb
Download or read book Analyzing Electoral History written by Jerome M. Clubb and published by SAGE Publications, Incorporated. This book was released on 1981-10 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the problems that arise in the analysis of electoral history -- the sources for which are fragmentary, or biased, or plagued with discrepancies. The contributors discuss ways of uncovering new, previously untapped data, detecting vote fraud by using computer-readable sources, and using new statistical techniques for working with quantitative data. Outside of its specialist subject, it is a much needed overview for the historian. '...an informative introduction to the use of electoral statistics...' -- Canadian Journal of History, Vol 18 No 3, December 1983
Book Synopsis The American Nonvoter by : Lyn Ragsdale
Download or read book The American Nonvoter written by Lyn Ragsdale and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Nonvoter examines how uncertainty regarding the national context influences people's decisions whether to vote or not. During times of national crisis, when uncertainty is high, voting increases; during times of stability people stay home. Using rigorous statistical tools and rich historical stories, Lyn Ragsdale and Jerrold G. Rusk show how uncertainty in the national campaign context reduces nonvoting in presidential and midterm elections from 1920 to 2012.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historical Atlas of U.S. Presidential Elections, 1788-2004 presents a comprehensive and vivid portrait of voting patterns and trends in presidential balloting from the uncontested first election to two of the most controversial and hard-fought contests in U.S. history. The Atlas uses sets of four-color maps focused at the county level to offer new perspectives and insight into the nations first fifty-five presidential elections. Exclusive to it are illuminating maps indicating degrees of support in each county for every candidate obtaining at least 2 percent of the popular vote. The maps uniquely allow for longitudinal analysis of electoral patterns for every county, state, region and section of the country across the span of U.S. history. Each election is illustrated by a centerpiece spread containing the following: a map depicting the winning candidate and party in each county and indicating whether victory was by majority or plurality, a map showing the electoral college vote, individual maps for each major candidate illustrating the level of support obtained in every county, pie charts presenting popular and electoral vote percentages. This reference also offers historical overviews of the electoral and political party history surrounding presidential elections and analyzes data sources and the history of election mapping as well. Informative essays examine key data and events of each election, providing context to that particular vote and the elections preceding and following it.
