Primary elections have been used for the past century for most U.S.
elective offices and their popularity is growing in other nations
as well. In some circumstances, primaries ensure that citizens have
a say in elections and test the skills of candidates before they
get to the general election. Yet primaries are often criticized for
increasing the cost of elections, for producing ideologically
extreme candidates, and for denying voters the opportunity to
choose candidates whose appeal transcends partisanship. Few such
arguments have, however, been rigorously tested. This innovative
Handbook evaluates many of the claims, positive and negative, that
have been made about primaries. It is organized into six sections,
covering the origins of primary elections; primary voters; US
presidential primaries; US subpresidential primaries; primaries in
other parts of the world; and reform proposals. The Routledge
Handbook of Primary Elections is an important research tool for
scholars, a resource guide for students, and a source of ideas for
those who seek to modify the electoral process.
