Abstract

Resumen: ¿Se puede explicar la probabilidad de votación de un candidato a partir de las condiciones municipales de violencia y desarrollo? Este artículo estudia el impacto del desarrollo económico y la violencia a nivel municipal sobre los patrones de votación en las elecciones presidenciales en Colombia para el período 1986-2014. Se utiliza una metodología de Análisis de Componentes Principales (ACP) y se genera así un índice de votación municipal, el cual se utiliza como insumo principal, junto con variables de desarrollo y violencia municipal en un modelo beta bayesiano. Al final, se concluye que, con mayor nivel de educación y acceso a medios de comunicación de los electores, se aumenta la probabilidad de votar por candidatos de derecha y se disminuye la probabilidad de votar por candidatos liberales. Abstract: Can the probability of voting for a candidate based on the municipal conditions of violence and development be explain? This paper analyses the impact of economic development and violence at the municipal level on voting patterns in presidential elections in Colombia for the period 1986-2014. It uses Principal Components Analysis (PCA) methodology and generates a municipal voting index, which is used as main input together with municipal development and violence variables in a Bayesian beta model. In the end, it is concluded that with a higher level of education and access to the media, the probability of voting for right-wing candidates increases and the probability of voting for liberal candidates is less likely
