Explanation:

The "ticket-splitting" is the vote to different political parties by the voters according to the type of elections to which they are summoned. This can be referred to votes made on the same day or issued on different days. An example would be the elections to the governor of Montana and for the presidency of the United States of 2004. While George W. Bush of the Republican party won the Democratic candidate John Kerry by 59% to 39%, the Democratic candidate to governor Brian Schweitzer defeated his Republican opponent by 50% to 46%.
