research
My research focuses on American national party organizations and campaigns and elections. I am the author of National Party Organizations and Party Brands in American Politics: The Democratic and Republican National Committees, 1912-2016 (Oxford University Press, 2023) and co-author of Republican Party Politics and the American South, 1865-1968 (Cambridge University Press, 2020 - with Jeffery A. Jenkins) - which has been awarded the J. David Greenstone Prize from the APSA Politics and History section, and the V.O. Key Award by SPSA. I have published articles in journals such as The Journal of Politics, Political Analysis, Perspectives on Politics, American Politics Research, Studies in American Political Development, Political Behavior, Electoral Studies, and others. You can find links to my published articles (as well as related data sets and do-files), and a list of op-eds and commentary I have (co-)authored in the other pages in this section.
