Аннотация:
In this paper we examine  the effects of valence  in a continuous spatial voting model between two incumbent parties and one potential entrant. All parties  are rank-motivated and are driven by their place in the electoral competition.
One of our main results is that a sufficiently wide  valence gap between the incumbents yields  an  equilibrium in which no entry will occur. We also show that an increase in valence shifts the high-valence incumbent party closer to the median voter, while the low-valence incumbent selects a more extreme platform.
