As part of my research for Racial Realignment, I worked with Brian Feinstein (University of Pennsylvania) to put together a collection of state party platforms from 1920-1968. More recently, I have collaborated with Daniel Hopkins, Daniel Galvin, Gerald Gamm, John Henderson, and Joel Paddock to compile a much wider collection of platforms spanning 1846-2017. The platforms are available for download at: https://dataverse.harvard.edu/dataset.xhtml?persistentId=doi:10.7910/DVN/KNOSHL.
