Entre o saber e o sentimento: as emoções e o voto na eleição presidencial chilena de 2017 Como os cidadãos decidem em quem votar nas eleições? As respostas tradicionais enfocam o papel do conhecimento político, identificação de partidos e avaliações do desempenho passado dos governos como variáveis explicativas. Neste artigo, avalia-se um argumento alternativo: o papel desempenhado pelas emoções. Usando dados de uma pesquisa realizada após as eleições gerais chilenas de dezembro de 2017, investigou-se a associação das emoções com o voto em Sebastián Piñera e como as emoções interagem com outros fatores relevantes que se correlacionam com o voto. Conclui que no Chile, juntamente com a identificação do partido e a avaliação de governos anteriores, as emoções dos eleitores em relação aos candidatos estão associadas à decisão do voto. ¿Cómo deciden los ciudadanos a quién votar en una elección?
