The Iraq War Vote (11 October 2002)


Below are histograms of the Iraq War votes in the House and Senate respectively. The histograms are over the first dimension of DW-NOMINATE coordinates for the 107th House and Senate. The red bars are "Yea" votes in the indicated range on the dimension, and the blue bars are "Nay" votes. The "Yea" voters are almost all from center right to far right while the "Nay" voters are mostly center left to far left. The vote in the House split the Democrats more clearly along spatial lines than the vote in the Senate. The individual votes are shown below.




Below are simple rank-orderings from left to right of the members of the 107th Senate and House. The rank orderings were produced by the Optimal Classification (OC) algorithm described in:

"Non-Parametric Unfolding of Binary Choice Data." Political Analysis, 8:211-237, 2000.

The rank orderings shown below are those that maximize the number of correctly classified roll call votes. To see how this is done, go to this page:

How Optimal Classification (OC) Works in One Dimension

The OC Scaling Program and examples can be downloaded from the OC Scaling Program Page.

For the 107th Senate, the overall correct classification is 91.1% with an aggregate proportional reduction in error (APRE) of .751 using roll calls through June of 2002. In the ordering below, the number just to the right of the Senator's name is the classification error and the number to the right of that is the total number of roll calls cast by the Senator. For example, placing Senator Wellstone at rank 1.0 (of 101 total Senators -- Jeffords is counted twice) only resulted in 7 classification errors out of a total of 423 (non-unanimous) votes cast. The proportion correct is (423-7)/423 = .983 (which is shown just to the left of the rank).

To the right of the rank are Yeas and Nays on the Iraq War Resolution. To the right of the Iraq War Resolution Vote is how the Senator voted on the 1991 Gulf War Resolution ("--" means they were not in the Senate in 1991).

The vote was 77-23 and was primarily along liberal-conservative lines. With a cutpoint between Leay and Schumer there are 12 spatial errors (4 below the cutpoint and 8 above the cutpoint). The percent correctly predicted was 88% and the PRE was .478. (Scroll Down to see the House.)

12 August 2002 Posting

Although a vote in Congress on whether or not to go to war with Iraq is probably many months away, the fact that many members of Congress are already offering their opinions on the matter for and against means that it is possible to at least do some preliminary predictions of the roll call votes in the House and Senate. A good place to start is with the roll calls on the Gulf War of 1991.

The figure below shows the roll call votes on 12 January 1991 approving the Gulf War. In the House the vote was 250 - 183 (R 164 - 3, D 86 - 179, ND 33 - 147, SD 53 - 32). The DW-NOMINATE scaling of the roll call correctly classifies 88.6% (382 of 431 -- 2 members did not vote enough in the 102nd House to be scaled) of the votes. In the Senate the vote was 52 - 47 (R 42 - 2, D 10 - 45, ND 3 - 35, SD 7 - 10). The DW-NOMINATE scaling of the roll call correctly classifies 87.9% (87 of 99) of the votes. The cross classifications are:

                   Actual Vote House                  Actual Vote Senate
                      Yea   Nay                             Yea   Nay

                    |           |                         |           |
               Nay  |  26   159 |185                 Nay  |   8    43 | 51
                    ---------------                       ---------------
                      249   182 |431                         52    47 | 99
The Proportional Reduction in Error (PRE) for the spatial model is (182 - 49)/182 = .731 for the House and (47 - 12)/47 = .745 for the Senate. A naive two-party model (each member votes with the majority of his or her party) would correctly classify 344 of 431 votes (79.6%) in the House and 87 of 99 votes (87.9%) in the Senate. (I include Sanders (I-VT) with the Democrats for this analysis.)

In the figure below the tokens are Red if the member voted "Yea" (for the Gulf War) and Blue if the member voted "Nay" (against the Gulf War). The R tokens are Republicans, the D tokens are Northern Democrats, and the S tokens are Southern Democrats. The black lines are the estimated cutting lines for the roll calls.



The next figure shows the 107th House and Senate with the 1991 cutting lines. Here Democrats are Red and Republicans are Blue. The 1991 cutting line for the 107th would predict that a motion for War with Iraq would easily pass in the House. Although there are fewer Democrats predicted to vote for the War, the Republicans are now a majority (at least until January, 2003!) and would probably vote overwhemingly for War. The situation in the Senate is much closer. With the 1991 cutting line the vote would be a tossup because of probable Republican defections. Hagel (R-NE) would probably vote against going to War and McCain (R-AZ) is always a wildcard.
