What explains electoral success in Mexico’s gubernatorial elections after the dem. transition? The key was not govt. performance, but the support of the incumbent governor. On average, candidates from the governor’s party were about 42% more likely to win. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/18…

1️⃣ ¿Qué explica el éxito electoral en las elecciones de gobernador en México después de la transición? La clave no fue el desempeño del gobierno, sino el apoyo del gobernador en turno. En promedio, los candidatos del partido del gobernador tenían 42% más probabilidad de ganar. 🧵

What drives attacks on #AcademicFreedom in democracies? María Inclán and I argue that the nature of political leadership matters: populist leaders tend to undermine academic freedom because it clashes with their values and worldview. Open thread 🧵 doi.org/10.1017/S15375…
