LIFE CYCLE MODEL OF PARTISANSHIP DEVELOPMENTAn Analysis of Aggregate Electoral Instability Following the Enfranchisement of WomenUniversity of Mississippi Phillip Converse's life cycle explanation of partisan strengthening implies there should have been an abrupt and relatively durable increase in the level of aggregate instability in the electorate following the enfranchisement of women in 1920. Using a technique originally developed by William Flanigan and Nancy Zingale (1974), state-level instability data and county-level instability data for Colorado were examined. These data reveal no abrupt and enduring increase in instability following the enfranchisement of women.
