  • Black Candidates and Black Voters:Assessing the Impact of Candidate Race on Uncounted Vote Rates
    Black Candidates and Black Voters:Assessing the Impact of Candidate Race on Uncounted Vote Rates Michael C. Herron Dartmouth College Jasjeet S. Sekhon Harvard University Numerous studies show that the rate at which African-Americans cast ballots with missing or invalid votes, i.e., the African-American residual vote rate, is higher than the corresponding white rate. While existing literature argues that the plethora of African-American residual votes is caused by adminis- trative problems or socioeconomic factors, we show using precinct-level data from two recent elec- tions in Cook County, Illinois, that the African-American residual vote rate in electoral contests with black candidates is less than half the rate in contests without black candidates. African Americans, therefore, are able to reduce their residual vote rate when they wish to do so. We present comple- mentary findings for white voters, whose residual vote rate often substantially increases in contests which feature dominant black candidates. Recent research on voting and elections demonstrates that African Americans produce disproportionately more residual votes than whites. That is, the rate at which ballots cast by blacks do not contain valid votes is higher than the corre- sponding white rate (Brady et al. 2001; Herron and Sekhon 2003; Tomz and van Houweling 2003; United States Commission on Civil Rights 2001). The white- black residual vote rate gap is large, often greater than 10%; it is present regard- less of voting technology, and it affects election outcomes. The case of Florida during the 2000 Presidential Election is a prime example: if the black residual vote rate there had been as low as the white rate, Albert Gore would now almost certainly be president (Herron and Sekhon 2003).
