Zusammenfassung:
<p>This study examines the policy content-policy process linkage in state legislative voting, using data from the 1965-66 and 1973-74 sessions of the Missouri and Ohio legislatures. On the average, more than half of the roll calls examined were unstructured, random votes. When these votes did cluster together, the voting structure appeared to be highly related to the party affiliation of legislators. Policy content did not appear to have an independent impact on voting structure, although partisanship was more effective in structuring voting on some issue domains than on others.</p>
