Texas Primary Runoff Results 1992-2008 ==============By Jim Riley============ This file (see data section at bottom) contains the results of all primary races for the Texas House from 1992 through 2008 in which there were 3 or more candidates (necessary in order for there to be a possibility of a runoff). In that time there were 2700 possible primaries (9 elections X 2 parties X 150 districts) yielding 95 runoffs (3.5%). There were an additional 53 races which had 3 candidates, but which were settled by the primary election (52 cases of a majority, and one where the 2nd place candidate withdrew), so 64% = 95/148 of the time when there 3 or more candidates, there was a runoff (including the one case where a candidate withdrew). Typically, a primary will attract more candidates when it is an open seat with no incumbent in a district where there is a dominant political party. A candidate wants a reasonable chance of success, so there is little reason to challenge incumbents or compete to be the sacrificial lamb. By year: Year: #races with 3+ candidates; runoff; winner in primary won runoff; 2nd place in primary won runoff. 1992: 30; 24; 16; 8; 1994: 16; 11; 6; 5; 1996: 17; 10; 9; 1; 1998: 11; 8; 4; 4; 2000: 5; 3; 2; 1; 2002: 27; 15; 13; 2; 2004: 10; 6; 4; 2; 2006: 23; 13; 10; 3; 2008: 9; 5; 5; 0; Total: 148 3+ candidates; 95 runoffs; 69 winners in primary won runoff; 26 runner-up in primary won runoff (so 70% of the time, the plurality winner won the runoff). Note redistricting occurred prior to the 1992 and 2002 elections, which meant some entirely new districts in some areas, and major changes in others; an "incumbent" might face 80% new voters. Some other characteristics: 3 candidates: 87; 44; 29; 15; 66%; 84% 4 candidates: 35; 26; 19; 7; 73%; 80% 5 candidates: 19; 18; 13; 5; 72%; 74% 6 candidates: 4; 4; 2; 2; 50%; 50% 7 candidates: 3; 3; 3; 0; 100%; 100% Totals: 147 elections; 95 runoffs; 66 same result in primary and runoff; 29 different winner in primary and runoff; 66% of time leader in the primary won the runoff; 81% of elections leader in primary won nomination, either outright or via runoff. In races with 3 candidates, about half required a runoff. The leader in the primary, won the primary 66% of the time. In some cases, a 3-candidate primary might have 3 candidates with about 1/3 of the vote, so that the leader after the primary might have almost no advantage going into the runoff, especially if the eliminated candidate endorsed the runner-up in the primary. With 4 candidates, 74% of the races required a runoff; and with 5 or more candidates, 96% required a runoff. This is not surprising. With 4 or 5 candidates receiving votes it is harder to gain a majority; and situations where there was not a dominant candidate may encourage more candidates to run. But in some cases, this may mean a dominate candidate requires a runoff, which might be a reason for the greatly higher continued success in the runoff. Margin: 0- 5%: 34; 34; 21; 13; 62%; 5-10%: 28; 28; 17; 11; 61%; 10-15%: 24; 18; 15; 3; 83%; 15-20%: 17; 12; 10; 2; 83%; 20-25%: 8; 2; 2; 0; 100%; 25-30%: 9; 1; 1; 0; 100%; 30-35%: 5; 0; 35-40%: 7; 0; 40-45%: 5; 0; 45-50%: 4; 0; 50-90%: 5; 0; Totals: Plurality in primary between 1st and 2nd; Number of primaries 147; Number of runoffs 95; with same winner in runoff and primary 66; different winner 29; and percent success for the leader in the primary to win the runoff. A lack of large pluralities in races requiring a runoff is not surprising. In a 3-candidate race, a candidate with a 20% plurality will have at least 46-2/3% of the total vote (and a tie between the 2nd and 3rd place candidates with 26-1/3%). Even if he is forced to a runoff, it would be very difficult to overcome that margin. A candidate with a 25% plurality will have a majority in a 3-candidate race. The 3 instances where a candidate had a 20%+ plurality, yet required a runoff were (47-22-16-15), (47-23-20-10), (49-28-22) or races in which the leader had all but a majority. On the other hand, when there is a small plurality, we would expect there to be a runoff in a 3-candidate race. If the 3rd (and any other trailing also-ran) garner a modest 10% of the vote, then a leader with a plurality of less than 10% can not have a majority, and will face a runoff. And if there is a small plurality, then we would expect a reasonable possibility for the 2nd place candidate to win the runoff (it would require an extreme level of cynicism to expect that most races would flip in a runoff). Eliminated: 0- 5%: 11; 1; 1; 0; 100%; 5-10%: 16; 3; 2; 1; 67%; 10-15%: 10: 2; 2; 0; 100%; 15-20%: 26; 13; 10; 3; 77%; 20-25%: 16; 10; 9; 1; 90%; 25-30%: 27; 25; 15; 10; 60%; 30-35%: 18; 18; 12; 6; 67%; 35-40%: 8; 8; 5; 3; 62%; 40-45%: 8; 8; 6; 2; 75%; 45-50%: 3; 3; 0; 3; 0%; 50-55%: 3; 3; 3; 0; 100%; 55-60%: 1; 1; 1; 0; 100%; Totals: Percentage garnered by eliminated candidates (3rd and trailing candidates for elections with outright winner in primary); number of primaries 147; number of runoffs 95; same winner in primary and runoff 66; flip in runoff 29; percentage% of primary winner prevailing in runoff 66%. For a runoff, the candidates will want their supporters to return for the runoff. In a race for a Texas House seat, many voters will have turned out to vote in presidential, gubernatorial, congressional, or other more prominent races, and simply voted in the House race because it was on the ballot. They may be difficult to motivate to turn out a second time. The key to a flip in a runoff may be differential turnout among supporters of the two candidates. Candidates may want to encourage voters who skipped the primary to turn out for the runoff. This may be extremely hard, since these voters will also have avoided voting in more prominent races. And runoff candidates may try to get supporters of the other candidate to switch. But unless the primary vote was irrational or totally uninformed, why would a voter switch his vote? Runoff candidates will also want to try to get supporters of the eliminated candidates to switch to them, and seek the endorsement of the eliminated candidates. Getting those voters to return may be a challenge, since their favored candidate was eliminated. On the other hand, in an IRV election, these voters are the only source of transfers that can change the order of the first count. So these votes might be regarded as the fuel for a possible flip in the runoff. If you trail by 10%, and the eliminated candidates represent 20% of the vote, you will need 75% of them to vote for you in order for there to be a flip. If they represent 40% of the vote, you will only need to get the support of 62.5% of them. In 84% of cases where the trailing candidates had 15% or less of the vote, no runoff was needed. Not surprising since there is 85% or more available for the two remaining candidates - unless the race is particularly close, the leader will likely have a majority. In the relatively few instances where a runoff was required, the leader in the primary won the runoff. So minimal 3rd candidate support will usually result in no runoff, or the primary winner winning the nomination (97%). If the trailing candidates have between 15% and 25% of the vote, there is a runoff 45% of the time, but the primary plurality winner prevails 83% of the time in the runoff. The 3rd candidate support was sufficient about half the time to prevent a majority in the primary, but not enough to produce a flip in the runoff. On the other hand, in 97% of cases where the trailing candidates had 25% or more of the vote, a runoff was required. The primary plurality winner won the runoff 64% of the time. So if there is enough 3rd candidate support, it almost always prevents a majority, and also provides a fair chance for a flip in the runoff. Support in First Round: 20-25%: 2; 2; 0; 100%; 25-30%: 6; 3; 3; 50%; 30-35%: 15; 9; 6; 60%; 35-40%: 29; 17; 12; 59%; 40-45%: 25; 19; 6; 76%; 45-50%: 18; 16; 2; 89%; 50-55%: 19; 55-60%: 14; 60-65%: 7; 65-70%: 7; 70%+ : 5; Totals: Percentage vote for leading candidate in primary; Number of primaries with 3 or more candidates (and number of runoffs when leading candidate had less than 50% of vote) 147 (and 95); number of runoffs won by primary leader, 66; number of flips in runoff, 29; and percentage of runoffs won by primary leader, 66%. When the primary leader is held to under 40%, they won the runoff only 60% of the time. In a 3-way race, if the leader has 40%, then the 2nd place candidate has at least 30%, and there a lot of votes available from other candidates. If the leader has 35%, then 65% of voters did not vote for him, but rather voted for the 2nd place candidate, or candidates who were eliminated. So it would be expected that these races were more of a toss-up. If the primary leader had over 40%, they won the runoff 81% of the time. They received close to a majority in the primary, and they may have a relatively large lead over the 2nd place candidate (eg 42-30-28). If the 2nd place candidate is close, then the 3rd place candidate will have relatively little support. There were 8 elections where the primary leader had over 40%, but lost the runoff. In three of these elections, the leader blew a relative large lead, but in all three there was a sharp drop in turnout, indicating the key was differential turnout among supporters of the two candidates: Support in primary; Support in runoff; Relative turnout: 44%-29%-26%; 44%-56%; 56% 40%-31%-28%; 47%-52%; 47% 42%-31%-14%-13%; 40%-60%; 47% In 3 other elections, the primary was relative close, and turnout for the runoff was somewhat comparable to the primary. In those cases, the flip may have been due to the ability of the 2nd place candidate to gain a large share of the vote from supporters of the eliminated candidates, plus modest turnout differential among supporters of the two runoff candidates. In all 3 elections, the leader in the primary _did_ receive a slightly greater share of the total vote in the runoff. 43%-38%-19%; 47%-53%; 93%. 47%-43%-4%-3%-2%; 49%-51%; 79%. 43%-42%-15%; 45%-55%; 76%. The final two elections, there was a large reversal in the runoff, as well as high relative turnout. In one case, in a suburban GOP race, pictures of the primary leader as a cross-dresser became public about the time of the primary. In the other case, in a black district, the primary leader and long-term incumbent came under ridicule for his sponsorship of a bill (nicknamed the booty bill) that would have (attempted to) outlaw suggestive dance routines by high school cheerleaders. 42%-33%-25%; 40%-60%; 91%. 48%-33%-19%; 46%-54%; 88% =============THE DATA:================= Democratic 1992 State Representative District 10 Lynda S.
