Get out the vote — Ariel White

Ariel White is an associate professor of Political Science at MIT. She studies voting and voting rights, race, the criminal legal system, and bureaucratic behavior as a way to shed light on people's everyday interactions with government. Her recent work investigates how potential voters react to being affected by punitive government policies, such as incarceration and immigration enforcement, and how people can make their way back onto the voting registries after these experiences.Links:* Ariel White (https://arwhite.mit.edu/)* Political Science (https://polisci.mit.edu/people/ariel-white)* MIT Gov/Lab (https://mitgovlab.org/people/ariel-white/)Timestamps:* (07:58) - What is actually known immediately following an election* (10:47) - How does mail-in voting affect elections* (13:09) - Why some people don't voteShow notes and transcript: https://news.mit.edu/podcast/podcast-curiosity-unbounded-episode-11-get-out-vote (https://news.mit.edu/podcast/podcast-curiosity-unbounded-episode-11-get-out-vote)Join the mailing list or send us feedback:https://eepurl.com/ixPQPA (https://eepurl.com/ixPQPA)
