THE VANISHING MARGINALS, THE BANDWAGON, AND THE MASS-MEDIA Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • We investigate the degree to which exposure to the mass media results in an increased likelihood to vote for the incumbent (or the winner in open-seat races). We also present experimental evidence demonstrating the influence of electoral expectations in individual-level voting decisions. 1994, Southern Political Science Association. All rights reserved.
