DESCRIPTION:Beyond a Reliable Vote: Coordination and Information Problems i
 n Congressional Nominations\n\nResearch in collaboration with: Knox Brown\
 , Angela Ocampo\, Shawn Patterson\, John Ray and John Zaller\n\nCongressio
 nal primaries\, like primary elections in general\, are imagined to give v
 oters\, rather than party elites\, the ability to choose which candidate w
 ins the nomination. Indeed\, we might expect primary election outcomes to 
 reflect the preferences of the median primary voter\, in roughly the way w
 e expect general election outcomes to reflect the preferences of the overa
 ll district median.\n\nWe challenge this conventional wisdom. \n\nWe argue
  that primary elections follow a fundamentally different logic than genera
 l elections\, due to the absence of party as a cue\, and to the presence o
 f more than two viable candidates.  Drawing on empirical insights from our
  2014 field study of nominations to open House seats\, we argue that the c
 ongressional nomination process\, and therefore the selection of MC’s\, 
 is dominated by the preferences of the organized groups affiliated with ea
 ch party.\n\n \n\nPlease register!\n\n*Political Institutions and Politica
