A look at the effect of the status of the economy on the results of an election.
1,650 words (approx. 6.6 pages) | 5 sources | 2002 United States


Paper Summary:

This piece provides an overview of the economy during elections. Using data from economists Ray Fair and Patrick Lynch, the author analyzes the notion that a strong economy (high GDP, low inflation) help incumbents get re-elected, while economic weakness helps the opposite party get elected. The author also asserts that a weak economy combined with high amounts of crime can also affect the outcome of a given election. The most important factor, however, is not which party can best control the economy, but which one can best control the illusion.
