Abstract

This article is based on a theoretical review in the field of analysis of the political behavior of an electoral phenomenon such as Split Ticket, or Split-Ticket Voting. Accordingly, in the next pages you will find the main approaches and discussions on Split Ticket in order to understand the main approaches and case studies of split-ticket voting in the field of political science through a bibliographic review and a content analysis.  The first progress milestone in an ongoing doctoral research is thus depicted herein.
