Replication Data for: Differential Registration Bias in Voter File Data: A Sensitivity Analysis Approach

Most notably, observational studies that examine turnout rates among registrants often implicitly condition on registration, a post-treatment variable that can induce bias if the treatment of interest also affects the likelihood of registration. We introduce a sensitivity analysis to assess the potential bias induced by this problem, which we call differential registration bias.
