Policy Feedback in Prisons: The Effect of Prison Incarceration on Voter Turnout in North Carolina

In Event: On Prisons and Punishment

Thu, April 4, 3:00 to 4:30pm CDT (3:00 to 4:30pm CDT), TBA

Brief Overview

I study the causal effect of prison sentences on turnout by leveraging sentencing discontinuities in North Carolina. Prison sentences have a small or negligible effect on turnout due to the low baseline turnout of those with felony convictions.
