Resumen
¿Cómo deciden los ciudadanos a quién votar en una elección? Las respuestas tradicionales se centran en el papel del conocimiento político, la identificación de los partidos y la evaluación del desempeño pasado de los gobiernos como variables explicativas. En este estudio evaluamos un argumento alternativo: el papel desempeñado por las emociones. Utilizando datos de una encuesta realizada después de las elecciones generales chilenas de diciembre de 2017, este artículo investiga la relación de las emociones con el voto por Sebastián Piñera y cómo las emociones interactúan con otros factores relevantes que se correlacionan con el voto. Concluimos que en Chile, junto con la identificación de los partidos y la evaluación retrospectiva, las emociones de los electores hacia los candidatos están asociadas a su decisión de por quién votar.
