Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Examines why some politicians take the drastic step of becoming a carpetbagger and how that shapes their campaigns and chances for victory.Candidates normally run for office in the places where they live. Occasionally, however, a politician will run as a carpetbagger-someone who moves to a new state for the express purpose of running, or who runs in one state after holding office in another. Stranger in a Strange State examines what makes some politicians take this drastic step and how that shapes their campaigns and chances for victory. Focusing on races for the US Senate from 1964 forward, Christopher J. Galdieri analyzes the campaigns of nine carpetbaggers, including nationally known figures such as Robert F.

While the record reveals that it generally takes national political stature for a carpetbagger to win an election, some recent campaigns suggest that in today's polarized political era, both politicians and state political parties might want to be more open to the prospect of carpetbagging. Examines why some politicians take the drastic step of becoming a carpetbagger and how that shapes their campaigns and chances for victory. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
