Show moreThis represents a study of the relationships between congressional district demographic characteristics, electoral competitiveness and representative voting behavior. Census data is used to compute heterogeneity scores for all congressional districts. Literature dealing with the effect of urbanization on electoral competitiveness and studies on the impact of competitiveness on congressional voting behavior are discussed.
