Since the early 2000s, a series of new voter identification laws have been passed. These laws could possibly reduce voter turnout in a way that provides a structural advantage to certain candidates. This paper uses state level presidential election turnout data for the elections between 2000 and 2012 in order to estimate the impact of voter ID laws on voter turnout. I find that there is no statistically significant decrease in turnout from these new laws. This may be due to the small number of strict ID laws that are in place during this period. I test this assumption by performing a simulated power-analysis. I find that this state level difference in difference methodology suffers from low power with a sufficiently low effect size. With caveats, this paper concludes by suggesting a different methodology.
