Para la autora, la actitud que el elector ha mostrado en cada uno de los procesos de elección en los últimos 30 años permite trazar ciertas líneas de investigación sobre los cambios de patrones en México. Lo anterior, en su opinión, podrá enriquecer el ámbito de estudio de la política mexicana que en este momento en particular, requiere de estudios que permitan dar certeza sobre el cambio democrático.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract In this article the author elaborates a study about the changes in the Mexican political system taking into consideration the analysis of preference from each electoral term. The author shows how the electoral attitude pattern can be researched from the elections in the last 30 years. This could revalue the study of Mexican politics with a more scientific basis about the democratic change.]]></p></abstract>
