While some studies have explored the rise of mandates at the state level, there has been comparatively less attention on stateﾖlocal relationships. Using a new survey of mayors, we explore variations in local government attitudes towards their state governments. We find some evidence that, regardless of partisanship, mayors in more conservative states are unhappy about state funding and-especially-regulations. More strikingly, we also uncover a partisan mismatch in which Democratic mayors provide especially negative ratings of their state's funding andﾗeven more stronglyﾗregulations. These findings have important implications for stateﾖlocal relations as cities continue to become more Democratic and Republicans increasingly dominate state-level contests. - Rep  aMayors - United States  aLocal government - United States  aFederalism - United States  aFederalism  aGlick, David M.  aPublius: The Journal of Federalism  a116080  c116074d116074  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 47, Issue no: 4pAR116540r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
