Lee’s research focuses on political institutions, party systems, and electoral behavior. His work examines how third parties influence major-party strategies, the effects of electoral fusion, and the institutional mechanics of congressional committees. He analyzes how political parties adapt to external threats, reshape issue positions, and maintain internal cohesion.
His publications reveal a sustained interest in party competition, electoral coordination, and legislative predictability. Articles span topics like committee size manipulation, split-ticket voting patterns, and spillover effects in survey experiments. Research often employs positive political theory to model strategic behavior under different electoral systems.
