| Abstract: | The paper deals with local public expenditures, and the analysis is based on cross-section data for the Swedish municipalities. There are two models estimated. The one is the basic median voter model, the other is a more general statistical alternative. The statistical alternative nests the basic median voter model as a special case. This makes it easy to test the null hypothesis that the basic median voter model is the correct model. Despite the results of the paper indicate a rejection of the null hypothesis, the estimation results are similar for the two models. |
