The sub-national public spending studies in Mexico have increased in the last years. Nevertheless, it is unknown if the party ideology has an effect on it. Therefore, this paper explores whether this variable influences on the public expenditure. Based on the case of Jalisco, this research compares PAN and PRI governments to show their decisions on public expenditure.The results show that the panista government gave more resources to public investment, education and rural development; meanwhile the priista government gave more to public health.

Keywords : ideology; political parties,public spending; PAN; PRI.
