note = "This study of voting in presidential elections in 12 central cities from 1920 to 1996 shows that cities played a crucial role in the New Deal realignment that dominated presidential elections from 1932 to the 1960s. Since then, cities have declined as a share of the total electorate, but they still provide crucial votes for successful Democratic presidential candidates.",
