This is a great addition to the literature on political candidates! Congratulations Angelia!
After years of hard work, I am happy to announce that my book The Candidacy Calculation has been published by UTP. The book takes a nuanced view of traditional barriers to candidacy such as money & family as well as emerging ones such as online harassment & social media scandals. lnkd.in/gKDkMHqs

Thrilled to have a new article in PRQ in time for the end of Pride month. doi.org/10.1177/1065... It demonstrates that having 2SLGBTQI+ candidates running in an electoral district is correlated to higher turnout among 2SLGBTQI+ voters - even in a relatively accepting place like 🇨🇦. #affinityeffects.

Thanks Hamish - I just checked and all of mine are in there. 😟
I have just learned about Anna’s Archive. It seems to be the Napster of textbooks. I have just alerted my publisher, who was unaware of it. Authors may want to see if their books are there and similarly inform their publishers.
