Primary and Presidential Candidates: Attributes and Backgrounds in 2008 and 2012

Institut for Engelsk, Germansk og Romansk

Abstract

This article looks at primary and presidential candidates in 2008 and 2012. Evidence suggests that voters are less influenced by candidates’ color, gender, or religious observation than previously. Conversely, markers of difference remain salient in the imaginations of pollsters and journalists, and appear in opinion polls and newspaper columns.
