ALTAMIRANO, Melina  e  LEY, Sandra. The Economy, Security, and Corruption in the 2018 Presidential Election Campaign Issues and Electoral Preferences in Mexico. Polít. gob [online]. 2020, vol.27, n.2, ePYG1275.  Epub 17-Fev-2021. ISSN 1665-2037.

Throughout Enrique Peña Nieto’s administration and during the 2018 presidential campaign, three problems stood out among the Mexican electorate: the limited economic growth, a sustained increase in violence, and multiple corruption scandals. Therefore, based on the CIDE-CSES 2018 National Electoral Study, we analyze the simultaneous effects of individual evaluations of the economy, violence and corruption on electoral preferences. Our findings indicate the prevalence of a retrospective economic vote that coexists with a security vote, but without clear support from crime victims. Although corruption was widely discussed during the electoral campaign, this issue did not play a major role in voter preferences.

Palavras-chave : issue voting; elections; economic voting; security; corruption.
