The Retirement Slump is used in calculating the incumbency advantage in congressional elections. The Retirement Slump is calculated by finding the difference in percentage of vote share between a retiring House Member or Senator and a new candidate. A greater difference often indicates greater incumbency advantage. This term is also tied to Sophomore Surge and Slurge.
