27. Retrospective voting in presidential primaries

Author

Mayer, William G.

Subjects
Primaries, Presidents -- Nomination, Vice-Presidents -- Evaluation, Government, History, Political science
Abstract

Though retrospective performance evaluations are now widely appreciated as a major influence on voting in general elections, their influence in presidential primaries has rarely been noticed. Using exit polls conducted by major media organizations over the last nine election cycles, this article shows that retrospective voting is an important, indeed dominant, factor in two types of situations: when an incumbent president is running for reelection, and when an incumbent vice president is seeking to become his party's next presidential candidate. This finding, in turn, helps explain two significant institutional features of the contemporary presidential nomination process: why most recent presidents have been renominated without much difficulty, and why the vice presidency has become such a good launching pad for presidential candidacies., How do voters make reasonably intelligent voting decisions, given that most of them are not terribly interested in politics, follow it only intermittently, and therefore do not have a great [...]

Abstract

Abstract This study examines the way 10 major newspapers constructed' the presidential and vice presidential debates and speculates on the implications such constructions have for the political process. Specifically, we examine both verbal and visual metaphors used by the press such as those based on war and aggression, sports, gender and age, the overprogrammed man, showbiz and the like. Further, we note what was not metaphorized (e.g., the press itself, voters, etc.). Then, assuming something of a social constructionist" stance, we explore four tenets of such an approach in order to illuminate something of the way we develop our political 'realities. "
