Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Courage, commitment, determination, and ego make firsttime candidates run But what does it take to make them win?Edward Sidlows new case study, Challenging the Incumbent: An Underdogs Undertaking, animates the scholarship on congressional elections as it tells an intimate, behindthescenes story of the 2000 congressional race in Illinois 8th district. Lance Pressl, a 42yearold challenger takes on longtime incumbent Phil Crane in a political contest that epitomizes the trials and tribulations confronting those who dare to run against incumbents.Combining the most recent scholarship on campaigns and elections with an eyewitness account of the daytoday dynamics of a race, Sidlow documents Pressls efforts as he tries to win the support and commitment of his core constituents and powerful political allies. The challenges he faces are legion: Will major demographic changes in the district bode well for Pressl, a moderate Democrat running in a wellestablished Republican stronghold? Will Pressls wellconnected personal contacts bring the dollars so critical to his campaign? Will they attract enough media attention? To whom can he turn for sound strategic advice and support? Balancing key issues in electoral politics with a fascinating DavidandGoliath storyline, Sidlows study will give students context in which to understand the dynamicsand the vagariesof House elections.
