“The Trifecta in Voting Barrier Causation: Economics, Politics, and Race is a timely contribution to the literature in voting rights and state election law and administration. Surprisingly and skillfully, Reilly has found a way to blend rational choice and political psychology, not through a utility maximization assumption, but through a framework rooted in threat minimization.”
