Deering, Clyde Wilcox -- Appendix : Citizens United volume Federal Election Commission (2010). 520 8 The 2010 US campaign and election was pivotal: the Republican takeover of the House, the advent of 'super PACs', and record-breaking sums spent on a midterm election. More than ever before, interest groups were able to mobilise new resources and new technologies in a shifting set of House and Senate races. This volume explores - in a series of lively case studies - a cross- section of groups, communities, and networks that vividly illustrates the 'unleashing' of interest group activity in the electoral process in response to Citizens United and other court cases and events. 588 0 Online resource; title from e-book title screen (ebrary platform, viewed October 30, 2014). 650 0 Pressure groups|zUnited States|xHistory|y21st century. 650 0 Elections|zUnited States|xHistory|y21st century. 650 7 POLITICAL SCIENCE|xPolitical Process|xPolitical Advocacy. |2bisacsh 650 7 Elections.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00904324 650 7 Pressure groups.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01075954 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 Herrnson, Paul S.,|d1958-|eeditor. 700 1 Deering, Christopher J.,|d1951-|eeditor. 700 1 Wilcox, Clyde,|d1953-|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tInterest groups unleashed|z9781452203782 |w(DLC) 2012017420|w(OCoLC)781831235 914 ocn877868592 994 93|bGTK
