Burden.2 a"Primary elections have been used for the past century for most U.S. elective offices and their popularity is growing in other nation's as well. In some circumstances, primaries ensure that citizens have a say in elections and test the skills of candidates before they get to the general election. Yet primaries are often criticized for increasing the cost of elections, for producing ideologically extreme candidates, and for denying voters the opportunity to choose candidates whose appeal transcends partisanship. Few such arguments have, however, been rigorously tested. This innovative Handbook evaluates many of the claims, positive and negative, that have been made about primaries.It is organized into six sections, covering the origins of primary elections; primary voters; US presidential primaries; US subpresidential primaries; primaries in other parts of the world; and reform proposals. The Routledge Handbook of Primary Elections is an important research tool for scholars, a resource guide for students, and a source of ideas for those who seek to modify the electoral process."--Provided by publisher.10aUnited States.bCongress. 0aElections. 0aPolitical parties. 0aPolitical science. 0aWorld politics.04aCongress04aElections04aGovernment04aInternational Politics04aPolitical Parties04aU.S. Politics 0aUnited StatesxPolitics and government.1 aBoatright, Robert G.,eeditor.08iPrint version: z978113868408940uhttps://www.routledgehandbooks.com/doi/10.4324/9781315544182zClick here to view.
