A new study published in the National Bureau of Economic Research reports that strict voter identification laws don’t stop people from voting in U.S. elections.
The study also found that such laws have “no negative effect†on voter registration or voter turnout either overall or for any specific group, whether defined by race, gender, age, or party affiliation.
The findings contradict a major assertion made by many election-oriented groups and Democratic politicians who believe that voter ID laws are a source of voter suppression. Voter ID laws and other contentious election integrity measures usually occur in states with Republican-controlled legislatures, making it a partisan issue.
