A. Moving to another question will save this response. Question 13 The endorsement of candidates by major large city newspapers tends to be most influential a. in general elections for statewide offices. b. only for affluent and older voters. OC. in down-ballot races that are often ignored by voters. d. only when reinforced by campaign materials provided by the candidates.

The correct answer is c. in down-ballot races that are often ignored by voters.<br /><br />Endorsements by major large city newspapers tend to be most influential in down-ballot races, which are races for positions that are not as well-known or high-profile as the top-ticket races for president or governor. These down-ballot races often receive less attention from voters, and endorsements from reputable sources like major newspapers can help sway undecided or uninformed voters.
