New insights on US voters who don’t have photo ID

Denise-Marie Ordway | August 16, 2018
A small fraction of people who voted in Texas and Michigan in 2016 lacked a photo ID, but those who did were disproportionately people of color, according to two new working papers.

A project of Harvard Kennedy School's Shorenstein Center and the Carnegie-Knight Initiative, Journalist’s Resource curates, summarizes and contextualizes high-quality research on newsy public policy topics. We are supported by generous grants from the Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
