[EL] Research question I was asked

[Meredith McGehee]

Is there any research available about the number of elected office-holders in the U.S. (President/Congressional/Governor) who are closely related (as a son/daughter/spouse/in-law) to a previous elected office-holder, and whether this phenomenon is more prevalent nowadays than 20-50-100 years ago?
