In order to improve our knowledge about reelection rates, I distinguished
municipalities in two groups over the basis of the median share of population, the upper
75% and finally the upper 90%. Rates of reelection tend to decrease as the percentile of
population in municipalities increases. As it can be read in Table 6.8, the higher the
threshold, the lower is the reelection rate in these groups. When the sample is divided
50-50, 36% of the mayors of the most populated half of municipalities was reelected.
