Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Battles over campaign finance regulations are often driven by beliefs about the likely consequences of reform on the electoral process. Will reform increase voter participation in the political process? Will one party be advantaged over another? In this paper, we study fifty years of gubernatorial elections in fifty states to assess the effects of key campaign finance regulations on turnout, competitiveness, and partisan advantage. This panel dataset harnesses the variation across states and over time to test whether and how reform matters. Among other things, we find that individual contribution limits have the opposite effect of organizational contribution limits, with the latter increasing turnout, increasing competitiveness, and hurting Democrats. Perhaps most surprisingly, public financing with voluntary spending limits tends to hurt Democrats.
