Paul Gronke studies American politics and empirical political theory. His specialities are the U.S. Congress, elections and electoral behavior, and public opinion. He has published a book, The Electorate, The Campaign, and the Vote (Michigan 2000), articles in American Journal of Political Science, Journal of Politics, Legislative Studies Quarterly, Public Opinion Quarterly, Electoral Studies, and American Politics Quarterly, and chapters in edited volumes.

At Reed, Gronke teaches courses on political behavior, political institutions, and social science research methods. He has been the chair of the Political Science Department since Fall, 2001 (with a few breaks for leave).

Gronke also is an avid runner, a political junkie, and lives nearby in the Eastmoreland neighborhood. You're as likely to find him in a local coffee shop as in his office.
