Campaigns and Politics Series 1956-94

PRELIMINARY INVENTORY
Date Prepared: November 16, 1998

The Campaigns and Politics Series of the Robert H. Michel Papers documents electoral activities, combining files originally located in the Washington, DC and the Peoria district offices. This series deals with Michel's campaigns and selected other local, sate, and national races. There are also files dealing with his leadership of the National Republican Congressional Committee in the mid-1970s and his participation in Republican National Conventions.

Campaigns and Politics is divided into two sections. The first, in boxes 1 through 29, is organized chronologically. To varying degrees, these files pertain primarily to Michel's campaigns. The quality of documentation is uneven, but for each campaign there are usually files about opposing candidates, public relations, finances, and campaign organization. Relatively little apparently survives related to campaign planning and strategizing, although more such information exists after 1980. Very few documents are authored by Michel himself or claim to capture his views.

The second subsection, boxes 30-40, are subject files organized alphabetically. They contain material about advertising, the Michel-sponsored candidate-education conferences called EXPOS, Federal Election Commission materials, information about Michel's role in the National Republican Congressional Committee, and his participation in the Republican National Conventions. As is the case with the chronological series, the quality of documentation is uneven at best, and it captures little of Michel's role first hand.

The provenance of much of the material is uncertain, reflecting the ad hoc nature of the early campaigns and the dispersion of files for later years. Most of the folder titles on the accompanying list are those used by the Michel office. The basic organization into the two series, however, was imposed on the collection. The contents of individual folders have not been processed, and the strong possibility exists that folder titles will not be entirely descriptive and that unrelated documents may be mis-filed.
