This pioneering work offers a theoretical perspective on two new
variables that shape presidential voting behavior in America. It
does this through an exploration of the impact that native son
presidential candidate Jimmy Carter had upon his home state
electorate in Georgia. The work fully documents the electoral
support that Carter received in his twelve elections in the state
of Georgia and the support he garnered for his former vice
president in the 1984 presidential election.
This is the first longitudinal study to examine the impact of
native son candidates on voting behavior. It concludes that native
son presidential candidates do affect voting behavior in their
states and that this effect sometimes extends such behavior
throughout their region. This study and its conclusions will be of
interest to scholars and historians in political science and
presidential studies.
