What this is

The district-level electoral panel behind the paper Do Voters Punish Political Instability?. The design compares Peruvian districts targeted by Fuerza Popular’s 2021 vote-annulment offensive with profile-matched controls, and districts crossed by the paralyzed Lava Jato road corridors, across the 2006–2026 elections.

The package contains the estimation universe and propensity groups, the primary two-way runoff outcome and the first-round outcome, the 36-specification robustness curve, the first-round block decomposition and the offensive-intensity (threatened-vote) panel, the two mechanism tests (intensity and runoff absorption), the Lava Jato corridor exposure with 2016 construction status, and the Conley spatial-HAC inference table. A README.md and DATA_DICTIONARY.md document every file and column.


Sources and privacy

Built entirely from public sources: ONPE electoral results (2006–2026), JNE and INFOgob annulment-petition records and the 2021 presidential baseline, and the INEI 2017 census. Every table is a geographic aggregate keyed on the ONPE district code (UBIGEO). No personal data is included — no names, identifiers, or individual-level records. INEI and ONPE use different district codings; the electoral key is the ONPE UBIGEO throughout.
