This result cannot be created without parents, who have the privileges to vote, espouses to their children. Thought there are two exceptions: Turman’s win over Dewely in 1948 and Kennedy’s win over Nixon in 1960, both election have reasons to their mispredicting. The election between Turman and Dewely was mispredicted because Dewely supporters losing motivation to vote by the widespread victory projection. Kennedy and Nixon’s election was mispredicted because Nixon lost the electoral poll despite winning the popular poll.

Moreover, Treen’s track record in office fell short of Edward’s record. Maginnis believed that “given the immense personal power attached to this office” people chose to vote “not on a political or moral basis but on a psychological one.” In contrast, because of Edwards’ captivating, go-getter personality, the people felt he was a more effective leader than Treen (pg. 72).
