Looks like attitudes toward voter ID in the UK are similar to those in the US.

Because I know you wanted it, here's the partisan breakdown of mail ballots by party from 2008 to 2024 in each state. Data from the Survey of the Performance of American Elections. For reference, I've also included the national time series.

I've just written a Substack post that explores some of the public opinion aspects of President Trump's recent anti-VBM post, and the political implications for the movement he has claimed leadership of.

The correlation between clean elections and the availability of mail/postal voting is positive, but I suspect the causality runs mostly from free and fair elections to postal voting. On the data, see

New article: When people have access to newspapers, belief that elections are well run is less likely to be influenced by the winner-loser effect than in counties with little newspaper penetration.

The Bipartisan Policy Center has just put out a very helpful explainer on the federal Voluntary Voting System Guidelines. This may sound like a dry subject, but it is central to President Trump's executive order on elections. Check it out.

What are the Federal Voluntary Voting System Guidelines? | Bipartisan Policy Center
The Voluntary Voting System Guidelines (VVSG) are a set of principles and standards for the election equipment that Americans use to vote.

NH has increased documentary requirements for voting by mail. As this ternary plot indicates, NH is among the last 2 traditional states when it comes to convenience voting. The law probably won't affect mail voting rates much overall, but might affect rates for some populations.

Here's an interesting and important article by a team of social psychologists on the question of how people perceive the fairness of election outcomes given the order in which votes are cast.

Greg Huber and colleagues have written an interesting study on beliefs about electoral integrity that distinguishes b/t severity and frequency of fraud, and also b/t uncounted & forgone votes. Check it out.

Yes, the Google trends data indicate a recent surge in searches on "Epstein." However, the states with the most searches (relatively speaking) are disproportionately from blue states.

As the nation and state ponder California's distinctly long period for certifying elections, remember that the certification deadline isn't the only distinct thing about California election laws.

Elliot Morris walks through the data to estimate that the market for the America Party is b/t 1% & 2% of electorate. I suspect some party candidates will be able to do better than that, but the numbers show just how uphill the Musk effort is. Read on: open.substack.com/pub/gelliot...
Who would vote for Elon Musk's America Party?
Crunching the numbers on the potential coalition for an anti-spending, anti-Trump, anti-Democrats, anti-Republicans political party... wait what?
