- Source: The Voter Decides
The Voter Decides is a 1954 political science book by Angus Campbell, Gerald Gurin, and Warren E. Miller. It first developed the notion of "party identification" or, in abbreviated form, "Party ID." Party ID is the sense of personal attachment the individual feels toward the political group or party of his or her choice.
Synopsis
The Voter Decides developed three theories as to how a person acquires Party ID.
1) Party attachment, like church preference, may be passed down from parent to child.
2) It may be the case that people remain in the same class, ethnic and religious groups as their parents and are subject to the same group influences as their parents.
3) People may tend to consciously or otherwise make the memory of their parent's partisanship conform to their own attachments
In short, once a Party ID is acquired from a person's parents (through unknowing absorption from a very young age) the person spends the rest of his or her life adopting views and positions that create a reason for their party affiliation.
