摘要
Political competition may have virtuous effects similar to the effect that economic competition has in markets. Using cross-sectional data on local elections in Mexico, we evaluate the effect of political competition on the provision of local public goods, controlling for socio-economic and demographic factors. Evidence suggests that political competition is positively related to the coverage of municipal public services, having a greater effect in those areas with the highest poverty and income inequality conditions.
