In this paper, we study whether voters in South Korea punish candidates for their past wrongdoings. Specifically, we analyze the effect of candidates` criminal records on election results using data from the 19th and 20th Korean National Assembly elections. Our estimates indicate that, on average, candidates with criminal records are 5.6 to 6.7 percent less likely to be elected and receive 2.3 to 7.9 percent less vote share than other candidates. Unlike previous studies, our findings suggest that voters in South Korea make their vote choices based on candidates' quality. |
