Description
Why did the popular vote for the Democratic nominee for president increase in an unusual straight-line for almost 30 years, with the exception of one election? What created this unique voting trend? Did the trend influence the outcome of past presidential elections and could it affect elections yet to come? This new and groundbreaking book provides answers to these questions and includes insight into the probable results of future elections, including projections for president in 2016.
The author, Tony Fairfax, has discovered and written about this unique voting pattern in this condensed book, "An Introduction to the Presidential Trend." The book discusses an intriguing phenomenon whereby the popular vote for the Democratic candidate for president has increased in a linear and predictable manner. The trend, in fact, existed from 1972 to 2000, with the exception of one presidential election. During that same period, the vote for Republican and Independent candidates fluctuated. The linear trend is the basis for a new political theory and is positioned to become a prominent part of US presidential election history.
The book is written to provide the reader with an overview of the original publication, "The Presidential Trend." In addition to a condensed explanation of the book’s theories, it also includes footnotes directing the reader to the sources of more detailed explanations contained within the original text.
Written for the novice as well as experienced analyst, the reader is taken through a literary narrative journey of the author’s original theory. Many will enjoy the condensed explanations and analysis of a theory that some say is destined to alter how presidential elections are viewed.
