| description | The objective of this research is to explore the existence of budgetary political cycles at municipal level in Chile. As stated in the literature, the existence of budgetary policy cycle encourages / motivates a politician in exercise to modify the structure of expenditure with the objective of obtaining re-election in office. In the case of the elections of mayor of Chile in 2012, we made a cross-section estimation and the results show a positive relationship of the municipal spending of the 2 years prior to the election over the vote received by an incumbent. In addition, the previous vote of the incumbent and the membership of a political coalition affect the percentage of votes received. |

La presente investigación tiene como objetivo explorar la existencia de ciclos políticos presupuestarios a escala municipal en Chile. Tal como se ha planteado en la literatura, la existencia de ciclo político presupuestario incentiva/motiva a un político en ejercicio a modificar la estructura de gasto con el objetivo de obtener la reelección en el cargo. Para el caso de las elecciones de alcalde de Chile del año 2012, realizamos una estimación cross-section y los resultados evidencian una relación positivo del gasto municipal de los 2 años previo a la elección sobre con la votación que recibe un incumbente. Además, la votación previa del incumbente y la pertenencia a una coalición política inciden en el porcentaje de votos recibidos. Facultad de Ciencias Económicas.
