Fenno's Paradox

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fenno's Paradox is the belief that people generally disapprove of the United States Congress as a whole, but support the Congressman from their own Congressional district. It is named for Richard Fenno who discussed this in his 1979 book Home Style: House Members in Their Districts. [1]
