Abstract

This paper studies voter behavior in Argentina. Do voters vote based on issues? Do they vote based on economic performance? What segments of the population are more (less) likely to do so? What is the relative impact of issues and the economy in vote choice? To provide a reliable answer to these questions, I use a mixed-logit model of spatial voting with non-policy components. Contrary to the common belief, I find that issue voting is a statistically significant and important factor. Economic voting is prevalent in middle and high classes, but not among poor voters.
