Citizens, journalists, and scholars have shown increased interest
in candidate violations of democratic norms, ranging from former
President Trump's campaign rhetoric to the Capitol riot. But how
unusual are the former President's actions on the campaign trail?
And to what extent do norm violations benefit - or harm -
presidential candidates? Other campaign strategies involve social
norms around non-elites. For example, some campaign messages
emphasize group norms in order to influence turnout and correct
misinformed beliefs. How do communications based on group
behaviors, beliefs, and attitudes affect voters during presidential
campaigns? Chapters in this edited volume explore the
communications of the President, and other actors, including groups
promoting turnout and fact-checking candidate statements. It uses
the historic 2020 U.S. Presidential Campaign to explore the
relationship between campaign messages and democratic norms, as
well as the potential of social norms to shape election-year
behaviors, attitudes, and perceptions among voters. This volume
highlights different features of the changing role of democratic
and group norms in presidential elections. The chapters in this
book were originally published as a special issue of the Journal of
Political Marketing.
