Resumo
The Electoral Geography emerges in France for over one hundred years, with the geographer
André Siegfried. However, geography has neglected this area for decades Political
Geography. Recently the interest in studies of elections comes back to geographical science,
emerging analysis suggests that the spatial dimension as a possible explanatory variable.
Thus, considering the importance of the role of space in the analysis of elections as we have
assumed that the vote is a given space. Therefore, we propose a spatial analysis of the votes of
election in 2006 and 2010 for state representative of Goiás. Thus, the overall goal was to
analyse how place shapes the distribution of votes in the space and their relationship to the
political representation of the state legislators Goiás. To this end, we seek through rates
effective number of candidates, the concentration index / dispersion and dominance index
spatialize the votes in Goiás, with the unit of analysis the municipality, understanding that this
is the place of politics. Spatial voting patterns were related to the production of parliamentary
deputies had checked for electoral connection in Goiás. As a result, we identified from the
index effective candidates that concentrate the votes in a few candidates. At the same time,
the majority of elected State Representative vote is concentrated within five municipalities,
namely, in a few municipalities receive a number of votes that effectively contributes to his
election. The axis of dominance shares the most votes with other candidates. Thus, the most
common pattern among State Representative is concentrated of Goiás-shared. By relating to
parliamentary production in the Legislative Assembly of Goiás, it was found that, somehow,
the spatial patterns of voting is related to the more particularistic action, which grants benefits
or interests located in more universalist parliamentary actions. This led us to consider that the
appreciation of the spatial dimension contributes greatly to the analysis of politics and
elections.
