Zingale draw on the most recent National Election Study surveys to offer a close analysis of the key issues and races, including: the outcome of the battle for control of the Senate, including races in Iowa, Colorado, Kansas, and Alaska; the role of independents in elections, particularly in this era of partisan polarization; the influence of record campaign spending on election outcomes; and whether supporting President Obama’s major programs helped or hurt members of Congress.
