Political scientists from Duke and Michigan State Universities analyze the results of the United States federal elections for 2000 and 2002. Utilizing voter survey and campaign result data collected since the 1940s, they place the contests within the context of general voting and campaign patterns in the country. Exploring voting behavior in general, they discuss voter demographics, attitudes towards issues and candidates, and party loyalties and preferences. That framework is then applied to the 2000 and 2002 presidential and congressional elections. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
