Description: "This work concentrates on the longstanding and significant factors of regionalism and sectionalism in the voting for the US chief executive. Even after the Civil War restored the nation's wholeness, the first postwar election showed the persistence of regional voting patterns. These patterns became even more pronounced in the succeeding elections of the 19th century and beyond"--Provided by publisher.
