Answer 1

Answer:

Retrospective voting                                                                                                                                        

Explanation:

Retrospective voting is described as one of the different types of election whereby distinct voters tend to look back at the specific party's performance who is in power and therefore casts "ballots" based on the degree to which it did well in a specific office. In retrospective voting, "electoral accountability" exists when different citizens can hold specific politicians responsible or accountable and therefore punishes or rewards them with their votes.

As per the question, Senator Hoffman is hoping to appeal retrospective voting.
