How does the following influence affects
-political parties
-peers/social background

-tv/radio
-the internet

Political parties : people tend to choose the candidate from the party they're rooting for
peers/social background = People tend to choose those who are chosen by their peers
Election/personal beliefs = people tend to choose someone that has the same belief as them
TV/Radio = Can control people opinion through various news
internet = A medium where people can freely express their opinion and could influence others

hope this helps
