Why is it masculine?

Partido is masculine because it derives from the Latin "partitus," the past participle of "partire" (to divide), which inherited the masculine gender of Latin second-declension nouns ending in -us. Like most Spanish nouns derived from Latin masculine forms, it retained that gender through the regular sound changes that transformed Latin into Spanish.
