Description

Is divided government - a Republican president and a Democratic congress - the product of diminished competition for seats in the U.S. House of Representatives? In this study the author uses a detailed analysis of the evolution of competition in postwar House elections to argue that the problems Republicans face in seeking House seats are political rather than structural.
