No money
o The median voter theory ignores the role of
money as a tool of influence in elections.
o If taking an extreme position on a given
topic maximizes fundraising, even if it does
not directly maximize votes on that topic, it
may serve the long-run interests of overall
vote maximization by allowing the
candidate to advertise more.

Leviathan Theory
Leviathan theory:
o Government attempts to grow as large
as possible.
o Voters cannot trust the government to
spend their tax dollars efficiently.
o Must design ways to combat government
greed.
This can explain the many rules in place in
the United States and elsewhere that
explicitly tie the governments hands in
terms of taxes and spending.
