This article investigates the voters’ behaviour in the 2008 general elections in the province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP). The study tests electoral theory of ‘party identification’. The study postulates that the electoral theory of party identification (also partisanship) operates to limited extent in the electoral politics of KP in the 2008 elections. These claims are supported by empirical evidence collected through quantitative data collection method i.e. questionnaire. In this study, 800 respondents have been taken from the voter list by systematic and multistage random sampling in NA-2 constituency in Peshawar. The data collected in the universe shows that (32.4%) of the respondents supported partisanship in 2008 polls. The chi-square test and probability value have been used while making statistical inferences. Through these claims, the study intends to contribute to the limited existing literature on electoral politics in KP.
