Description: Written by a team that has collaborated on all editions over sixteen years, Change and Continuity in the 1996 Elections presents a systematic and integrated picture of the elections and reviews basic voting behavior research. Authors Paul R. Abramson, John H. Aldrich, and David W.

Rohde use data from a wide variety of sources - including the University of Michigan's National Election Studies, Gallup polls, exit polls, and official election returns - to place the 1996 elections in historical context and assess the patterns of post-World War II politics.

After considering the questions raised by the 1996 campaign, they explore the future of American politics, including the implications for the American party system of Bill Clinton's reelection victory and the Republican congressional victory.
