with an emphasis on the Australian Ballot reform measures of the 1890’s. Rusk puts forth two hypotheses the first surrounding the influence the Australian Ballot had in stimulating split ticket voting compared to the “unofficial party strip ballot.” (Rusk, 1222) The second is related to actual ballot composition and the “degree of partisan orientation” displayed.

Webster’s New World Dictionary defines the term political party as, “an organization of people who share the same views about the way power should be used in a country or society.” A plain and simple definition for a very complex part of America’s political system.
