Racial Cleavage in Local Voting: The Case of School and Tax Issue Referendums.
Button, James
Journal of Black Studies, v24 n1 p29-41 Sep 1993
Explores voting behavior of African Americans and whites in local school and tax referenda to determine whether racial conflict is still a primal factor in noncandidate elections. Results for voters in 5 counties in Florida (over 1,699,000 voters) reveal African-American underregistration and the continuing importance of racial cleavage. (SLD)
