AVENDANO, Octavio y SANDOVAL, Pablo. Political Disaffection and Stability of Electoral Results in Chilean, 1993-2009. Perf. latinoam. [online]. 2016, vol.24, n.47, pp.175-198. ISSN 0188-7653. https://doi.org/10.18504/pl2447-010-2016.
This article analyses the electoral stability vis à vis the increase of unstable votes in 1993 and 2009 parliamentary elections in Chile. In contrast with other academic works which conceive little volatility as corollary of a persistent voter's behavior, we argue that the electoral results are consequence of the electoral system which in fact generates change in electoral behavior. We have named this phenomenon as "self-compensation". Data analyzed in this paper show an important decrease in stable voters and that mobility exists. Nevertheless, the special characteristic of the electoral mobility is what gives stability to voter's behavior during this period.
