Monopoly Politics
2004 (posted November 8, 2002)
Using results from the November 2002 House races, we are
able to make more than 350 projections in the 2004 US House races.
These projections will only change due to the creation of open seats
when members retire, die, lose in a primary or get kicked out of
office.

The Center conducted a national essay
contest with cash prizes on the question of why young people don't

foreign countries. We posted the prize-winning essays, along with
representatives from all the staets, as well as media coverage, unusual
