According to this theory, voters base their judgements and party loyalty not on proposals for future policy initiatives but on their assessment of a candidate or party's past performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRunning on the Record calls into question the work of historians who have argued that voters unversed in the technicalities of policy are politically incapacitated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lex Renda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0813917220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780813917221\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Virginia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/29\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.23h x 6.18w x 1.01d","brand":"Lex Renda","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48992011714815,"sku":"9780813917221","price":57.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/running-on-the-record-lex-renda-9780813917221","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
