AB - This study examines ideological orientation and partisanship of voters in Honam, a well-known area due to its strong regional voting. More specifically, this study analyzes candidate nominations of main political parties and the process and the outcomes of the 21st legislative election and attempts to explain what makes the landslide electoral winning of the Democratic Party (DP) in Honam in comparison with the last one. Analyzing post-election survey datasets collected by the Korean Political Science Association, it shows that ideologically left-leaning orientations and party preferences for the DP became strengthened, and that ideological orientations of the public and the perceived ideological distances from the DP and the United Future Party became more important and influential. Honam was not an exception. Finally, it suggests that electoral reforms to improve the proportionality of votes and political efforts to reduce ideological distances from voters for opposition parties by changing party platforms are necessary to establish competitive party systems in Honam.
