本文考察了医疗补助计划的扩大和《平价医疗法案》(ACA)中与私人保险相关的部分对选民投票率和登记的影响。我们采用差异性识别策略，利用随时间的变化、州医疗补助扩展状况和州内当地地区ACA前未参保率。使用2006年至2016年11月当前人口调查的数据和人口普查局的小范围医疗保险估计，我们的结果表明，ACA对选民投票率或登记几乎没有影响。
This article examines the impact of both the Medicaid expansion and the private insurance-related components of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) on voter turnout and registration. We employ a difference-in-difference-in-differences identification strategy exploiting variation over time, state Medicaid expansion status, and within-state local area pre-ACA uninsured rates. Using data between 2006 and 2016 from the November Current Population Survey and the Census Bureau's Small Area Health Insurance Estimates, our results suggest little effect of the ACA on voter turnout or registration.
