> New Editors of Political Research Quarterly Announced
> The Western Political Science Association would like to announce the selection of a new team of editors for Political Research Quarterly. The new nine-member team will be led by Neil Chaturvedi, Cal Poly Pomona, as editor-in-chief. The eight associate editors bring in expertise from a broad cross-section of the political science discipline.

The Chaturvedi team was one of three applications that the committee reviewed before making its recommendation.

> Chaturvedi will be replacing Charles ("Tony") Smith, University of California, Irvine, on July 1, 2026. The association would like to thank Tony for his four years of serve as PRQ editor-in-chief. During his tenure, Smith oversaw an expansion of the quality of the journal and in the diversity of subfields published. He also oversaw a decrease in the processing times from submission to final decision. His work has been stellar, and the association is very appreciative of all that he has done.

> James Scott, Illinois State University
> Richard Clucas, WPSA Executive Director

> Finally, I would personally like to thank all the applicants for the editor position. The WPSA and PRQ could not succeed without the support of individuals like you. I thank you for applying and hope to continue seeing you play an important role in the association.
