CASTILLO CUCALON, Kristel. Approaching Peruvian Migrant Voters and their Electoral Political Behavior. Pap.polit. [online]. 2018, vol.23, n.1, pp.159-184. ISSN 0122-4409.  https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.papo23-1.aepm.

Peruvian overseas migrants' voting is almost null in the political and electoral agenda in Peru. The Peruvian overseas voting results are analyzed with an aggregate statistical count; then, with a disaggregated analysis of their results by political parties in the first rounds of the national elections of Peru in 2006, 2011 and 2016. With the systematized statistics, the electoral rationale of the Peruvian overseas vote is analyzed and discussed. The study presents a close approach to the Peruvian overseas electorate that is not only inclined to the right (based on Peruvian political terms) but also made up of different types of migrant voters who have variable electoral preferences by country of residence.

Palabras clave : Peru; overseas voting; political attitudes; electoral district; transnational citizenship.
