Data from the 2022 elections show, once again, that commonsense election integrity reforms like those passed in Georgia, Florida, and Texas do not “suppress” turnout. The whole voter suppression narrative is just propaganda.
In 2019, the National Bureau of Economic Research released a report examining the effects of voter ID using turnout data from 2008 to 2018. Their conclusion? Voter ID “laws have no significant negative effect on registration or turnout, overall or for any subgroup defined by age, gender, race, or party affiliation.”
So, what actually happened with these new reforms in place? A University of Georgia survey of voters found 0% of black voters said they had a poor voting experience. In fact, 96.2% described their voting experience as excellent or good; 96% of white voters said the same thing. Florida’s 2022 election reforms strengthening ID requirements for absentee ballots received similar criticism. The League of Women Voters called it “undemocratic, unconstitutional, and un-American.”
The law simply required anyone requesting an absentee ballot to include the last four digits of their Social Security number, or the serial number of their Texas driver’s license or the personal ID card or election certificate that the state provides for free.
