The relationship between voters and parties has been a recurring theme in many works in the social sciences, especially in the field of Political Science. In the Brazilian case, a longitudinal analysis over the past decade shows a significant fluctuation in the percentage of voters identified with parties. In this context, our goal was to identify the changes in the socio-economic and attitudinal profile of party voters between 2002 and 2014, and create a brief comparison between PT, PSBD, PMDB, PV and PSB. For this study, we used data collected by the Estudo Eleitoral Brasileiro (ESEB) 2002, 2006, 2010 and 2014. Our main findings are that the Brazilian party voter is more cognitively mobilized in attitudinal terms, compared to non-partisan voter, but there are no major distinctions between voters who identify with the parties highlighted in presidential contests.Downloads
