The Changing Political South : How Minorities and Women are Transforming the Region, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

The phenomenal growth of minority populations in the U.S.

South is quickly transforming the region's politics.

Most political observers see the Democratic Party rising in the region, with increasingly Democratic-leaning women voters joining emergent populations of Asian and Latino voters and African American voters.

Some argue that demography is destiny, and yet the analyses presented in The Changing Political South demonstrate little such certainty about the future competitiveness of the two major parties in the South.

Authors Charles S. Bullock, III, Susan A. MacManus, Jeremy D. Mayer, and Mark J. Rozell substantiate the idea of strong and persistent Democratic leanings among Black voters and a majority of women.

However, they find that the rising minority populations' votes are increasingly "up for grabs" by the two major parties.

How the two parties fare in the future of Southern politics will be driven largely by their abilities to reach these new voters.
