DESCRIPTION:What People Get Wrong about the Right to Vote\n\nSpeaker: Emily Zhang, 
 Assistant Professor of Law, Berkeley Law\n\nNovember 4 @ 12:45 - 2 p.m. 
 Lunch provided in the Selznick Library:12:15 p.m.-12:45 p.m\n\nSponsors: 
 Center for Right-Wing Studies, Center for the Study of Law and Society, 
 \nCenter for Social Justice - UC Berkeley\n\nVoters make mistakes. They 
 don’t bring the right ID to the polling place. They register to vote 
 after the registration deadline. They don’t re- register to vote after 
 they move. They fail to “clothe” their mail-in ballots. They think 
 they’re eligible to vote when they’re not. And they think they’re not 
 eligible to vote when they are.\n\nWe should take these mistakes seriously. 
 \n\nUnderstanding what mistakes they make and why will help us better 
 design election regimes and policies that maximize voter participation. 
 Fixing the mistakes that cause ballots to be thrown out—and that we 
 therefore capture in administrative data—would require making election 
 laws less complicated and more intuitive. Addressing the mistakes that 
 prevent people from trying to vote in the first place—and that therefore 
 go unrecorded—would require much more than legal change.\n\n
