Previous study has found that national factors primarily affect vote choice in Korean gubernatorial elections while there have been a handful of studies on the influence of local factors. The purpose of this study is to comprehensively examine whether both national and local factors influence vote decisions in Korean gubernatorial elections. This study argues that both national and local factors affect vote choice in Korean gubernatorial elections in a way that voters put both factors in their calculations and national factors exert more influence than local factors for their final choice on election day. The results of the analysis suggest that Korean gubernatorial election voters have two different sets of evaluation for national matters and local matters. Employing such separate sets of assessment suggests the possibility that local factors could have more significant influence on vote decisions if local governments become more autonomous and take more accountability for local matters.
Abstract
Previous study has found that national factors primarily affect vote choice in Korean gubernatorial elections while there have been a handful of studies on the influence of local factors. The purpose of this study is to comprehensively examine whether both national and local factors influence vote decisions in Korean gubernatorial elections. This study argues that both national and local factors affect vote choice in Korean gubernatorial elections in a way that voters put both factors in their calculations and national factors exert more influence than local factors for their final choice on election day. The results of the analysis suggest that Korean gubernatorial election voters have two different sets of evaluation for national matters and local matters. Employing such separate sets of assessment suggests the possibility that local factors could have more significant influence on vote decisions if local governments become more autonomous and take more accountability for local matters.
