Campaign Contributions and Mayoral/Aldermanic Relationships: Building on Krebs and Pelissero

In: Urban affairs review, Band 37, Heft 1, S. 85-95

Abstract

Independently of Krebs and Pelissero, the authors have studied Chicago election campaign contributions and city council voting. Their findings confirm the differences between the political regimes of Mayors Harold Washington and Richard M. Daley. The authors go further to explore the implication of these empirical findings for what they call the "new Chicago machine."
