To understand electors'' behavior of split-ticket voting, all kinds of patterns and influential factors of straight-ticket and split-ticket that electors vote must be concerned. Regarding the causes of split-ticket voting, academic circles classify it into two types, intentional factor and unintentional factor. The difference between them lies in whether electors'' split-ticket voting is a conscious behavior or not.
