Abstract

My ORCA project focused on the strategies and impacts of the Tea Party Movement in the 2010 Congressional Elections. Using data gathered from an analysis of 55 national and local newspapers, this project examined endorsements made by the Tea Party Movement in House of Representatives races during the 2010 election cycle. I performed the data collection, analysis, and write up for this project. I also compiled a research poster that I presented at the prestigious Midwest Political Science Association in Chicago, Illinois. My research was also featured at the Mary Lou Fulton Conference for Undergraduate Research at Brigham Young University.
