Rational Voting Behaviour Accounting for Heterogeneous Ballots in British Elections. Mauerer, Ingrid Doris Walter, Annemarie Elecciones - Gran Bretaña - Modelos matemáticos Teoría de la elección racional The most analysed choice situation by electoral researchers is at the ballot box. In partially contested elections, such as in Britain or Spain, voters cannot vote for all parties in every region or constituency. We present a modelling approach to study rational voting behaviour that integrates such heterogeneous ballots and takes voting for the numerous parties therein seriously. The empirical application to the 2015 British Election demonstrates substantial insights not found when neglecting ballot composition heterogeneity or applying existing approaches. 2025-05-15T10:51:24Z 2025-05-15T10:51:24Z 2025-05-15T10:51:24Z 2024-10-03 journal article Mauerer I, Walter A.
