Why do voters find it easier to make a judgment about an incumbent than about an challenger?
A voter can evaluate the incumbent's history of actions, policies, decisions, successes, mistakes, and how that person fixed their errors. A voter doesn't have access to the same array of factors about a challenger. A new person may have wonderful intentions and the drive to be a great politician and work for citizens, but voters cannot evaluate the person's performance. As an example of factors that a voter might consider: A mayor of a small urban city has been in office for several years. He has not made headlines-- good or bad. However, when the voter called the Mayor about a problem in the city, the Mayor acted arrogant, rude, and dismissive. At the next election, the Mayor was challenged by an "unknown". The voter decided to call a member of City Council to ask some questions, such as: How does the Mayor work with Council? How does the council feel toward the Mayor? Is the Mayor condescending toward Members of Council or toward city employees? What is the Council's knowledge about and opinion of the new challenger? In the end, the voter decided that the arrogant-rude-dismissive incumbent Mayor could not effectively work FOR citizens if he wouldn't listen to citizens. His attitude lost him one vote. The voter chose the new "unknown" challenger, despite the lack of experience and his younger age.
