Why did La Follette think that an elected official selected by convention will be more loyal to party bosses than to the voters?
La Follette believed that an elected official selected by convention would be more beholden to party bosses due to the influence and control these leaders exerted over the convention process. He argued that such officials often relied on the backing of party elites for their nominations and political survival, leading them to prioritize the interests of those bosses over the needs and preferences of the voters. This reliance created a disconnect between elected officials and the electorate, undermining true democratic representation.
