More than ever before, interest groups were able to mobilise new resources and new technologies in a shifting set of House and Senate races. This volume explores - in a series of lively case studies - a cross-section of groups, communities, and networks that vividly illustrates the 'unleashing' of interest group activity in the electoral process in response to Citizens United and other court cases and events. 606 $aPressure groups$zUnited States$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aElections$zUnited States$xHistory$y21st century 615 0$aPressure groups$xHistory 615 0$aElections$xHistory 676 $a322.430973 701 $aHerrnson$b Paul S.$f1958-$0884569 701 $aDeering$b Christopher J.$f1951-$01547921 701 $aWilcox$b Clyde$f1953-$01084244 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791048003321 996 $aInterest groups unleashed$93804536 997 $aUNINA
