AEI has posted section 5-related studies of Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia, Texas, and Louisiana. According to the site: “The authors of these studies, Prof. Keith Gaddie of the Univ. of Oklahoma and Prof. Charles Bullock of the Univ. of Georgia, have produced extensive voting behavior scholarship in addition to acting as expert witnesses in dozens of voting rights cases throughout the country. These studies analyze a variety of election criteria including: black and Hispanic voter registration rates; black and Hispanic election turnout rates; success and failure of black and Hispanic candidates; white cross-over support for minority candidates; and racial polarization levels using three different methodologies. Although the trends in minority election participation vary from state to state, the data suggest that the crisis of black voter disenfranchisement in the Deep South and elsewhere that existed in 1965 is over and Congress should allow this provision of the act to expire.”
