The federal budget crisis affected the Presidential Election in 1996 as people had more negative feelings toward the Republican Party.

In December 1995, during the government of the Democrat Bill Clinton, there was a shutdown of 21 days. The Republican leaders in the United States Congress promoted the closure as a way to pressure Clinton in favor of a more conservative budget, but the blocking tactic turned against them: it increased the popularity of Clinton, who in November 1996 won reelection for a second mandate.
