[EL] great and disturbing piece on voter intimidation

[Adam Bonin]

I remembered that they studied it and it was effective
(http://www.apsanet.org/imgtest/apsrfeb08gerberetal.pdf ); what I wasn't
sure about was whether the tactic had become a regular part of GOTV
practice.

The Voter Participation Center mailers don't contain any of the "we'll tell
your neighbors if you don't vote" language, though. That's a new twist, I
think:

As I told a reporter, I believe Don Green at Yale and others have worked on
providing voter history as a way of shaming people into voting.  So I don't
think this is anything new, is it?
