Abstract

Developments in presidential campaign finance have highlighted the role of journalists in making the public aware of the influence of money in the political process and in acting as protectors of the public interest. Public awareness of campaign finance is becoming more and more dependent on investigative journalism and the ability of the news media to identify the actual source of campaign funds.

13. The role of candidate spending in presidential nomination campaigns

Author

Haynes, Audrey A., Gurian, Paul-Henri, and Nichols, Stephen M.

Subjects
Presidential candidates -- Finance, Political campaigns -- Finance, Nominations for office -- Analysis, Political science
Abstract

One of the central questions about American presidential nominations concerns the effects of candidate spending on the outcomes of primaries and caucuses. This issue lies at the heart of normative concerns relating to political equality and access, representation, and democratic constraint on the presidency. Despite its importance, however, a good deal remains unclear about the extent to which, and under what conditions, money influences presidential nomination contest results. In this paper we explore these questions by testing a multivariate model of nomination outcomes in which we isolate the effects of spending on votes, controlling for the impact of other variables known to be important to the process. We find that candidate spending is an important component of success in the struggle for the presidential nomination. The relationship between spending and vote outcomes, however, is mitigated by other forces inherent in the battle.

Author

Subjects

Abstract

This research examines the influence of delegate selection mode on the financial allocations of presidential candidates. Candidates allocate much more money to primaries than to caucuses. This may be because of differences in campaign style and target audiences. However, most of the difference in spending can be explained in terms of candidates' basic goals: maximizing delegates and media coverage. Inherent differences between primaries and caucuses do influence campaign spending, but the combined impact of those differences is less than the combined impact of external factors.

Abstract

We investigate the gender gap in policy preferences among political contributors. We find a bivariate gap in both parties, with Democratic women being more liberal than Democratic men, and Republican women more conservative than Republican men. This reverse gender gap among Republican contributors is explained by the greater appeal of Pat Robertson to women. After controls for religious variables, Republican women contributors are found to be more liberal than their male counterparts.

Abstract

A legislative ban on soft money political campaign contributions is the legal and preferable means to reduce the negative effects of money on the electoral system. The Federal Election Campaign Act contains soft money loopholes which were widely and greedily taken advantage of in the 1996 presidential campaign. Congress should close the loopholes when it considers the issue in the spring of 1998.
