Running on the record : Civil War-era politics in New Hampshire
In this valuable study, Lex Renda uses retrospective voting theory - a quantitative political science model for assessing political allegiances - to explore the connections between voters' judgments and public policy in New Hampshire before, during, and after the Civil War. According to this theory, voters base their judgments and party loyalty not on proposals for future policy initiatives but on their assessment of a candidate or party's performance
