Despite this success, the Republicans retained their dominance in the U.S. Congress and in the Florida State Legislature. The 2008 elections in Florida utilizes multiple types of data to provide an explanation for the disparate outcomes of these elections. The book chronicles changes in voter registration and turnout over time and compares the electoral behavior of groups in Florida to that in the nation as a whole. It examines the importance of legislative apportionment, term limits and incumbency to the outcome of congressional and state legislative races and provides important clues to the future of electoral behavior in one of the nation's most important states. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web 588 Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher; resource not viewed. 610 10 United States. |bCongress |xElections, 2008. |=^A20185 610 17 United States. |bCongress. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00529490 |?UNAUTHORIZED 610 17 USA |xKongress. |2swd |0(DE-588c)4078683-3 |?UNAUTHORIZED 610 17 USA |xPräsident. |2swd |0(DE-588c)4047019-2 |?UNAUTHORIZED 648 7 2008 |2fast 648 7 Geschichte 2008. |2swd 650 0 Elections |zFlorida. |=^A81671 650 0 Presidents |zUnited States |xElection |y2008. |=^A1006536 650 7 Elections. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00904324 650 7 Politics and government |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 Presidents |xElection. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01075747 650 07 Wahl. |2swd |0(DE-588c)4064286-0 651 0 Florida |xPolitics and government. |=^A170353 651 7 Florida. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01205150 |?UNAUTHORIZED 651 7 United States. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01204155 |?UNAUTHORIZED 651 7 Florida. |2swd |0(DE-588c)4017585-6 |?UNAUTHORIZED 655 0 Electronic books. |=^A491897 700 1 Bayliss, Slater. |=^A1315207 700 1 Moore, Monica L. |q(Monica Leigh) |?UNAUTHORIZED 776 08 |iPrint version: |tThe 2008 elections in Florida |dLanham, Md. : University Press of America, ©2011. |z9780761854265 |w(DLC) 2010942483 830 0 Patterns and trends in Florida elections series. |=^A1315206 856 40 |zFull text available from Ebook Central - Academic Complete |uhttps://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/eastcarolina/detail.action?docID=689583 949 CLICK ON WEB ADDRESS |wASIS |hJOYNER188 949 CLICK ON WEB ADDRESS |wASIS |hHSL77 949 CLICK ON WEB ADDRESS |wASIS |hJMUSIC60 596 1 3 4 998 4646523
