The idea that voters' decisions are largely determined by the issues at stake in the election. Before survey-research, most writers assumed that issue voting was the norm in democratic elections (although there have always been sceptics, from marquis-de-condorcetto joseph-schumpeter, who denied this-Schumpeter even denying that it ought to be). The first surveys of the determinants of voting showed that habit and party identification played leading roles, and issue voting almost none, as most voters knew nothing at all about many of the issues discussed by politicians and journalists during elections. Since the late 1960s issue voting has enjoyed a modest revival. This is due partly to the influence of rational-choice theory on election studies, and partly to the recognition that the politics in the United States in the 1950s-when the most influential surveys of the party identification school were done-were unusually bland and consensual. When 'issues' are restricted to 'issues which are salient to the electorate', it can be shown that issue voting plays quite a prominent role in a typical election. The other main determinant is retrospective voting, or evaluation of the party (team) currently in office. Here voters must compare the performance of the government with the promises of the opposition, a comparison which most voters are well aware is lopsided.Read more: issue-voting

The term that describes the fear of Communist influence in the 1950s is "McCarthyism." Named after Senator Joseph McCarthy, it refers to the intense anti-communist sentiment and the campaign against alleged communists in the U.S. government and other institutions. This period was marked by aggressive investigations, accusations, and blacklisting, often without proper evidence, leading to widespread paranoia and a culture of fear regarding communist infiltration.
In the 1950s, Franklin Washington, like many African Americans, faced barriers such as poll taxes when voting. These fees were implemented in some states as a means to disenfranchise Black voters and poor individuals. The requirement to pay a poll tax often made it financially difficult for many eligible citizens to exercise their right to vote, reflecting the systemic racism and inequality prevalent during that era. Efforts to abolish such practices were part of the broader civil rights movement aimed at ensuring equal voting rights for all citizens.
