Answer to Question 1

An ideal response will:
1. Highlight the three basic reform strategies: (1) impose limits on giving, receiving, and spending of political money, (2) require public disclosure, and (3) give governmental subsidies that reduce reliance on campaign contributors.
2. Explain the success or failure of these strategies using specific examples such as the Federal Election Campaign Act (1971), the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act (2002), or Super PACs.

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1. Highlight three differences between House and Senate campaigns. Elections for the Senate are more contested, more financed, and are more high-profile than elections for the House.
2. Explain whether a House or Senate seat would be more challenging based on their differences as well as on concerns about running against incumbents or party controlled districts.
