Congratulations to Professor Gabriel Lenz, Jack Citrin, and PhD Alumnus, Doug Ahler whose article, "Do Open Primaries Improve Representation? An Experimental Test of California's 2012 Top-Two Primary" was selected as the best paper published in LSQ in the calendar year 2016. The committee noted that the paper is especially important in that it speaks to a number of literatures, and has important real world implications (particularly in a time of polarization and heightened debate over institutional design/reform). The award will be presented at the legislative section business meeting at APSA.
