Relectoral - Electoral Analysis
Functions to obtain an important number of electoral
indicators described in the package, which can be divided into
two large sections: The first would be the one containing the
indicators of electoral disproportionality, such as, Rae index,
Loosemore–Hanby index, etc. The second group is intended to
study the dimensions of the party system vote, through the
indicators of electoral fragmentation, polarization,
volatility, etc. Moreover, multiple seat allocation simulations
can also be performed based on different allocation systems,
such as the D'Hondt method, Sainte-Laguë, etc. Finally, some of
these functions have been built so that, if the user wishes,
the data provided by the Spanish Ministry of Home Office for
different electoral processes held in Spain can be obtained
automatically. All the above will allow the users to carry out
deep studies on the results obtained in any type of electoral
process. The methods are described in: Oñate, Pablo and Ocaña,
Francisco A. (1999, ISBN:9788474762815); Ruiz Rodríguez,
Leticia M. and Otero Felipe, Patricia (2011,
ISBN:9788474766226).
