Contents
First published during the Eisenhower administration, researchers have long depended on America Votes for its consistent and detailed presentation of election data from across disparate state election offices. America Votes (AV) is published biennially, and since the mid-1990s has been authored or co-authored by Rhodes Cook, who brings to the volume years of election analysis experience and expertise in navigating the complicated U.S. electoral landscape. The book contains an introduction and election coverage by Cook, which will be expanded this edition to capture new trends analysis, and is predominantly composed of election result tables. Organized by state, this edition of AV is a valuable resource that includes official, state-certified special, primary, and general election returns for the House, Senate, and gubernatorial elections of 2019 and 2020.
