Abstract
The field of research in elections and the emergence of spatial differences in electoral behavior and its relationship to the science of geographic information systems and the possibility of conducting spatial analysis of current electoral sites are important studies in the field of geopolitics. This research is an attempt to suggest determining the optimal location for easy access of voters to the electoral center and to vote in the best way. The data of the electoral centers for the year 2014 was taken and processed and applied to many neighborhoods, roads and areas where there are no electoral centers on the right side of the city of Mosul. The purpose is to provide decision makers with the numbers and locations of the proposed centers for easy access. The results of the study showed that approximately 30% of the voting population are outside the coverage area based on the proposed plan in the research, and to complement the above, work has been done to develop a better spatial planning for the locations of the polling centers, as 30 additional sites have been created to the group of polling centers.
