Resumo
Starting from the idea that electorates are heterogeneous (Morris and Rabinowitz, 1997; Tomz and Van Houweling, 2008; Kropko, 2012), I verified the empirical performance of spatial models of electoral evaluation according to the ideological position of Latin American voters. Specifically, I used mixed formulations to evaluate the classical theory of proximity (Downs, 1957; Davis, Hinich and Ordeshook, 1970) and its alternative, the directional paradigm (Rabinowitz and Macdonald, 1989; Macdonald, Listhaug and Rabinowitz, 1991), in six presidential elections: Brazil 2006 and 2011, Mexico 2006, Chile 2009, Uruguay 2009 and Peru 2011. The results show that voters of the right follow a directional pattern while voters of the left behave according to the scheme of proximity. The data comes from Comparative Study of Electoral System (2023).
