There were multiple ways for workers to respond to low wages and poor working conditions. Some would form into unions and either attempt to fix these in ways such as collective bargaining or going on strike. An example of this would be during the Great Railroad Strike. Eastern railroads had announced a 10% wage cut, which angered workers. As such, they went on strike, and they disrupted rail service, destroyed equipment, and rioted in the streets of cities like Pittsburg.

Answer:
Reasons for irrational behaviour : Political brand name establishment in favour of candidate, enhancing brand loyalty towards.
More knowledgable public : Would value candidate working on real development, rather than mere brand name.
Explanation:
Political elections are determined by the public's impressions of the candidates rather than the candidates' views on the issues.
Reason(s) of such irrational voting behaviour could be : The candidate having established a personal brand image of himself/ herself, specially in a particular community group. This makes the people of the community being 'brand loyal' towards their candidate, irrespective of his or her ideologies. It is also possible to make that political personality (candidate) an important part of 'national image' or 'community leader image', which reinforce support for the candidate, irrespective of person perception and attitudes.
If public were more knowledgeable about factors that affect person perception and attitudes : The political support would not be based on lineaged political brand names. It would rather be earned on the basis of candidate's performance for socio - economic, political upliftment. This would give power in the hands of deserving politicians & create a message that 'real work' & not just 'name' is needed to gain political success
