ABSTRACT
This article is intended to identify the variables with the greatest impact on a candidate's odds of being elected to the Brazilian Chamber of Deputies (the lower house) in the 2006 elections. Based on data from the Superior Electoral Court, the article begins by analyzing the existence of statistically significant correlations between gender, age, occupation, schooling, and campaign spending on the one hand and the election outcome on the other (elected versus not elected). Next, the article presents a bivariate logistic regression model to measure the real impact of each of these variables on the candidate's outcome. These same procedures were repeated for the parties of the right, center, and left. The conclusion is that being a professional politician is the most important variable in determining a candidate's electoral success in Brazil.
Dans cet article, on cherche à préciser quelles variables ont le plus incidé sur les chances de victoire des candidats à l'élection fédérale de 2006. À partir des données fournies par le Supérieur Tribunal Électoral, on a examiné, tout d'abord, la présence de corrélations statistiquement significatives entre, d'un côté, le sexe, l'âge, la profession, la scolarité et les coûts de campagne, et de l'autre, le résultat obtenu par le candidat - élu ou non élu. Ensuite, on présente un modèle de régression logistique binaire afin de mesurer le vrai impact de chacune de ces variables sur le succès du candidat. Ces procédés ont été appliqués aux partis de droite, centre et gauche. On conclut que le fait d'être un homme politique professionnel est la variable la plus importante pour assurer le succès électoral du candidat.
