商品簡介
Drawing on surveys and other evidence and continuing the series of books that began with study of the 1980 elections, this text examines the 2016 US presidential and congressional elections and analyzes individual-level voting behavior and the factors that lead citizens to vote and impacted how they voted, from sociological, social-psychological, and rational choice perspectives. It details the presidential primaries, the general election campaign, the election results, the decision whether to vote, how social forces influenced the vote, attitudes towards the candidates and issues, how retrospective evaluations of presidential and government performance influenced voting decisions, the impact of party loyalties, the House and Senate elections, the pattern of congressional outcomes, how voters made congressional voting decisions, and the 2016 elections in historical context.
