Description of Pictures: Choosing the Leader: Leadership Elections in the House of Representatives
Party leaders in Congress wield considerable influence, but how are they actually chosen? Matthew Green, professor of politics at The Catholic University of America, and Douglas Harris, professor of political science at Loyola University Maryland in Baltimore, Maryland, draw upon interviews and decades of archival data to explain how members of Congress decide whom to vote for in leadership elections.
Note: Douglas Harris couldn't make the event.
