The structure of the council, the basic political institution of the overseas Spanish government, in the province of Durango, Nueva Vizcaya, during the 18th century, was similar to that of other Hispanic territories. However, the governor, head of this ancestral institution, established conflicting relationships with other authorities (hearing lawyers, royal officers, neighbors) which became power relations. In particular ―during the period of the Bourbons reforms―, regarding the elections to integrate the local government. From archival sources and a comparative review of specialized historical bibliography, we conclude that political conflicts in this northern part of the territory are a reflection of geographical disadvantages (delayed mail, lack of political center), personal indispositions (disknowledge of authority, personal incompetence, disinterest due to low wages), and legislative reforms inapplicable in the local context.

The municipal elections of 2015 and 2019 transformed local party systems towards multiparty models and decentralized the power historically held by the two major state-based parties. This study presents an unprecedented global view of this process of change in the political configuration of power in the Spanish city councils of provincial capitals and the two autonomous cities. It adopts a broad longitudinal perspective, covering six electoral moments over the last two decades, analyzing a total of 312 mayoral elections cases. The analysis is based on an original database that tracks variations in the number of parties with representation, the types of governments on which the constitution of the mayoral offices is based, and the resulting positions occupied by the different parties. The results indicate that in 2015 and 2019, there was an increase in parties sharing power, with a reduction in majority governments in favor of coalitions and minority governments. In 2023, despite a return to a scenario with fewer parties and an increase in majority governments, it cannot be asserted that the party system has reverted to its pre-Great Recession state, as major parties such as the PP still rely in other political formations to form the governments in many provincial capitals.

This article identifies the factors that have influenced varying levels of citizen involvement in municipal elections in Uruguay since 2010. Several studies show that turnout in local elections is lower than in national elections, whereas that participation increases as the size of the municipality decreases. However, in Uruguay turnout is very high in all elections because voting is compulsory. For that reason, we use a novel way to measure citizen involvement in subnational elections by quantifying the "partial blank vote" or level abstention, which captures the percentage of those who turn out to vote but abstain at one of the levels (departmental or municipal). We show that the inverse relationship between municipality size and electoral participation also holds, even when compulsory voting does not show it in turnout. In many small municipalities the votes for local authorities exceed those obtained by departmental authorities, thus inverting the relationship of the second level election model. Our findings allow us to observe varying levels of citizen involvement beyond the mere turnout to vote, which has been the only variable analyzed thus far by the academic community.

The article titled "AGENDA, FRAMING, AND EDITORIAL BIAS IN STATE TELEVISION NEWS IN SPAIN: Results of the regional and municipal elections on May 28, 2023, compared to the announcement of early general elections" analyzes the differences in Spanish state television news regarding two relevant news events: the regional and municipal elections on May 28, 2023, and the announcement of early general elections. The study concludes that there are significant differences between television channels and that each channel's editorial guidelines determine their informative approach. Antena 3 and Telecinco have a conservative stance, while TVE and La Sexta have a progressive stance. [Extracted from the article]

Since the 1991 Constitution of Colombia, many elements of the electoral dynamics have been changing in this country. One of them, perhaps the most important one, is the significance that electoral alliances have taken for local and regional elections. With an analysis of the 2015 and 2019 elections, this article describes how inter-party alliances are formed in these two cases. For this purpose, a network analysis is used to establish which alliances have taken place, the number of them, the stakeholders involved, among other elements. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Conclusions: Some reflections are offered on both the possible impact of the composition of forces in national elections on local elections, and on executivelegislative relations resulting from the new configuration of the party system and the implementation of the Opposition Statute. Originality: This issue presents readings of elections that emphasize citizens' political behavior and move away from traditional emphasis on political parties. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Chile is one of the fastest aging countries in Latin America, and the country is currently at an advanced stage of demographic transition. Projections highlight that that in another decade, Chile will emerge as an aging economy. Within the framework of the Fondecyt Regular 1201115 project: "Gender and Aging: An Ethnography on the Social and Moral Organization of Care in the Peñalolén commune (Santiago, Chile)," in this article, we address the findings of a case study on the social organization of elderly care in the Peñalolén commune (Metropolitan Region, Chile). We do so in conjunction with social and gender inequalities from a feminist perspective. The aim of the article is to analyze the social perceptions about aging held by professionals of municipal services working with the elderly population in this specific context. We conducted interviews with these workers using an ethnographic approach that integrated both digital and in-person methodological strategies, and subjected the information collected to a thorough discourse analysis using MaxQDA software (2001 version). The results reveal that the interviewed professionals' perceptions of old age intermingle the definitions of old age derived from regulatory and public policy frameworks with their own personal and professional experiences in the communal territory. They also demonstrate the multidimensional nature of the inequalities faced by the elderly in Peñalolén, perceived by professionals as demands to be addressed in the exercise of their work. In sum, we propose a perspective of old age and aging that considers its complexity in terms of situated territorial experience by applying ethnographic listening with a gender perspective of the various actors working with the elderly individuals in each context.

The article "Lessons from the processes in Coahuila and the State of Mexico in 2023" analyzes the local elections in Coahuila and the State of Mexico, highlighting the capacity of the INE and the TEPJF to organize and resolve conflicts in a context of high polarization. The importance of studying the internal logics of local electoral processes and the clientelistic cooptation of the PRI in the State of Mexico is emphasized. The coalitions and candidates in both states are also mentioned, as well as the attacks from the president and Morena towards the electoral authorities. Information is provided about the appointment of new members in the electoral authority, including Guadalupe Taddei as president. The complexity of organizing electoral processes in Coahuila and the State of Mexico is highlighted, as well as the institutional capacity of the INE to carry them out in a legal and expeditious manner. Different judgments and cases related to elections in Mexico are analyzed, and the sanction imposed on Morena for the financing scheme with resources from Texcoco municipality workers is mentioned. A change in voter preferences and the consolidation of the PRI-PVEM-NA-ES coalition as a competitive option in the elections in Coahuila and the State of Mexico is observed. In the State of Mexico, the candidate of the PRI-PVEM-NA-ES coalition won in 77 municipalities, Morena in 38, the PRD in nine, and the PAN only in one. Voter turnout has had ups and downs in the State of Mexico, with an increase in 2017 and a decrease in 2023. The role of clientelistic networks in electoral behavior is highlighted, and the importance of maintaining an institutional relationship between the Executive Power and the electoral authorities to guarantee legality in future electoral processes is mentioned.

The lack of clarity in the application of gender parity in elections and the failed constitutional reforms regarding this issue are also addressed. [Extracted from the article]

The article analyzes the local elections of 2023 in the State of Mexico and their impact on the PRI's hegemony in the governorship. The PRI lost power in the 2018 presidential elections and suffered a defeat in the local elections of 2023, putting an end to its 94-year cycle in the state's governorship. The article presents an analysis of the governorship elections in the State of Mexico from 1945 to 1999, highlighting governmental influence in the elections and irregularities in the electoral process. It also mentions deficiencies and problems in the electoral process in the State of Mexico in 2017, where there was manipulation of figures to favor the PRI candidate. After 94 years in power, the PRI was defeated in the State of Mexico, putting an end to the era of the Atlacomulco group. The article also analyzes the exhaustion of the political system in the State of Mexico throughout the PRI's 94 years of government and the need to change corrupt political practices and address the state's structural problems.

The article analyzes the effects of consecutive legislative reelection in the local Congresses of Mexico. The author of the book "The Effects of Legislative Reelection" concludes that reelection tends to reduce party discipline and cohesion among legislators, which is interpreted as a sign of independence towards the electorate. Dr. Rendón's research focuses on the effects of legislative reelection on legislators' behavior. Using quasi-experimental designs, the author demonstrates that the possibility of reelection decreases legislators' party discipline and cohesion. Additionally, it is observed that legislators elected by relative majority in single-member districts show an even greater reduction in these aspects compared to those elected by proportional representation.

In Mexico, despite the fact that international commitments have been assumed and legislation has been passed on the matter, gender inequality in politics persists as it continues to manifest itself in spaces of power and in public decision-making. In the context of the COVID-19 Pandemic, this paper proposes to analyze the designation of the Interim Municipal Councils in comparison with the integration of the Town Halls 2020-2024 of the State of Hidalgo. The research approach is comparative and descriptive. It is concluded that this political event represents a case of gender inequality in politics to the detriment of the historical struggle and political rights of women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper identifies the links between transnational municipal networks and international agreements in the environmental arena. It is taken for granted that transnational municipal networks support global environmental action and the process of sustainable development, in particular giving access to resources, with technical support and knowledge, but to what extent international agreements such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Paris Agreement, or the Convention on Biological Diversity guide the action of these networks? The research resorts to content analysis to examine the goals, mission, and published documents of two networks in particular, ICLEI and Mercosur, in the search for clear connections with the intergovernmental level. The paper contributes to the understanding of the role of transnational municipal networks in environmental governance, identifying through abductive reasoning the diffusion of norm from the international to the local level and underlining the importance of the role of international, national and local actors.

This paper analyses the validity of the second-order model in the 2019 municipal elections. We focus, first, on the theoretical evolution that has transformed the model proposed by Reif and Schmitt (1980). Second, it evaluates the explanatory capacity of a model that does not fit with highly fragmented and heterogeneous units of analysis. Finally, a contextual analysis is presented to provide a more robust explanation of the 2019 Spanish municipal election. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The study is framed within the evolution of Spanish socialism and highlights the prominence of the province of Vizcaya in the organized labor movement. [Extracted from the article]

Introduction: Automated news writing is one of the technological advances that raises most questions, but also expectations, within the application of artificial intelligence in the media. Currently, RTVE (Radio Televisión Española) is working on a pilot project together with the company Narrativa Inte)ligencia Artificial to cover the municipal elections of 2023 in the areas that are part of the so-called empty Spain. A project that contemplates the automatic writing of news by a technological tool that interprets and transforms the election results and turns them into news without human intervention. Methodology: This work is based on the systematic review of existing literature on the subject and is a case study in which open interviews have been conducted with four of the managers of the companies mentioned. Discussion and results: A pioneering, state-of-the-art initiative in which RTVE, using technology as a lever, aims to increase the dissemination and reach of news in regions with scarce journalistic coverage. Conclusions: The artificial intelligence applied to journalism leads to compe)titiveness, flexibility, fluidity and fast. This paradigm shift for the profession must have its limits in a code of ethics that rules this innovative way of automating the writing of news. Nevertheless, its proper use will allow, as in this case, to integrate and vertebrate territories, with news formats adapted to each target audience. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article will analyze the main conceptual outlines of the right to suffrage. To this end, two different perspectives will be addressed: an international perspective and a constitutional one, which, according to the Peruvian legal system, is the basis of the referred right, both in its political and philosophical dimension, besides being an elemental part of the rights of citizen participation. In view of this, we will question the legal, philosophical and ethical aspects of Supreme Decree 041-2022-PCM, where the National Office of Electoral Processes restricts the fundamental right to vote to voters for not having the three doses of regulatory vaccination for Covid-19. This is a reality that affects the Regional and Municipal Elections of 2022 and the free and democratic exercise of citizen power. Faced with this scenario, philosophical theories regarding the restrictions of fundamental rights, argue that these rights are not always absolute, and through the application of the principle of proportionality in the strict sense, their limitation may be allowed, and in turn, considering that the implementation of the vaccine against Covid-19 in our country is of free and voluntary access.

In this article, we analyze 19 billboards of presidential candidates for the Lisbon and Porto City Councils in the 2021 Municipal Elections in Portugal. Taking as a reference one of the three axes of the Grammar of Visual Design (GDS), we intend to study the compositional level of this persuasive genre. The present work focuses on the visual composition, specifically the actor/candidate and the graphic stain, and on linguistic features, embodied in the slogan (verb moods and tenses and their relationship with speech acts, lexical choices, argumentative construction, among others), fundamental contributions to the creation of the ethos.

In this article we analize the electoral practices in the Buenos Aires southern countryside throughout the 1850 decade, especially the ones that took place at the Azul, frontier location and place for the political, economical, social and cultural interaction among the "friendly Indian" populations, which had their settlements around the vecinity of the town, and the Creole and European society that inhabited there. Troughout the analisys of the social ethnic profile of the people who appeared in writting in the register and electoral minutes, the goal of this work is to examine which sectors of the heterogeneous rural population that participated at the polls, focusing the interest on the indigenous populations, in a dinamic context of alliances and personal relationships, as well as in power struggles. Local elections signified a mechanism of legitimation of the government' system in rural and frontier fields. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article evaluates the use of the recall of mandate by the government of the Fourth Transformation in Mexico. The mechanism of recall of mandate, its institutional design, and the process carried out in 2022 are analyzed. It is concluded that the recall of mandate was used to increase the authority of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador. Additionally, the possible adverse effects of this mechanism on emerging democracies are warned about. The article also mentions the lack of respect for the rules of the consultation and the use of illegal resources by the government. The cult of personality of the president and the use of the consultation as an electoral pre-campaign are highlighted. The book "Democracies in Motion" addresses the topic of democracy in Mexico and provides information on local elections and the popular consultation of 2022. [Extracted from the article]

Since 1987, migrants residing in the city of Buenos Aires have had the right to participate in local elections. The city’s Electoral Code, approved in 2018 and applied for the first time in the 2021 local elections, changed the regime of voluntary registration in the electoral register to one of automatic registration. This change not only increased the number of foreigners authorized to cast the vote, but it was also accompanied by a significant growth in migrant electoral participation. This article projects an analysis at three different levels. Firstly, it addresses the historically determined relationship between nationality, residence and access to the political community, with special emphasis on the exercise of political rights by migrants in the Argentine context. Afterwards, it considers the legislative and institutional transformations that, since the entry into force of the new Electoral Code, have entailed a transformation of the political-electoral role of the migrant group in the city of Buenos Aires. Finally, it analyzes some of the effects of automatic registration on the electoral behavior of the migrant group, trying not to lose sight of the composition and internal dynamics of this population as possible explanatory patterns of its electoral behavior.

The article analyzes the changes in the political and electoral life of the province of Santiago del Estero at the municipal level, focusing on political electoral disputes and their significance in national elections. It highlights the importance of party networks and the influence of leaders in provincial politics. The Justicialist Party (PJ) obtained a wide advantage in the national elections of 2003, while the Civic Front became the provincial government in 2004. The Civic Front has maintained its electoral support through the construction of political networks and local disputes. The text also mentions the author's presence in training sessions for election officials and describes political practices such as "punteo" to control votes. The document provides a list of bibliographic references related to subnational politics in the province of Santiago del Estero. [Extracted from the article]

The present paper brings the preliminary results of an experiment carried out during the 2020 local elections in São Luís/MA. The aim was to investigate whether and how a collaborative and decentralized fact-checking model affects the way participants perceive disinformation. For this, a fact-checking platform called "Sem Migué" was developed as a minimum viable product, which was tested with the participation of 24 volunteers, including non-journalists. The data analyzed was collected from the website's metrics, questionnaires answered by the volunteers, a focus group and participant observation. The results will guide the development of a new version of the model, which might be tested in new applications of the project. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
