Ultimately, we want to know how parties, in their efforts to attract votes, move across the platform space.
Thus parties can play strategically, choosing a platform by which they hope to collect enough votes to win.
Most voters gave both of their votes to the same party, but of those who split their votes, most followed the current coalition patterns.
Policy moderation by incumbents has a positive significant effect on their votes.
Since the candidate with more resources has an advantage when he tries to ‘buy’ votes, he has the stronger incentive to converge.
Under an absolute majority rule, by contrast, there are not enough votes in favour to enact the measure.
Politicians who want their votes are therefore likely to emphasize body bags more than geopolitics.
Secondly, standard indexes use the random voting model as their assumption of electoral behaviour under a given electoral rule.
The seats in these multimember districts are awarded to closed party lists in proportion to the votes they receive.
The question then becomes: are these votes the important ones?
First applied to roll-call votes in the 1920s, scholars today still use cohesion scores to study the strength of legislative parties.
Needless to say, impacts on the legislative result and sanction from the party leadership would differ between voting against and abstaining from the bills.
Most journalistic and academic treatments of the policy process focus on the stage when authoritative decisions are made, such as congressional votes or court rulings.
A final interpretation is that while maximizing votes is obviously important, maximizing the likelihood of being included in the governing coalition is more important.
A voter casts a ballot for the party whose platform generates the higher utility, and the party obtaining the most votes wins the election.
