A funny quirk about being a young prof: When I try to make modern references and they fail, I don't look like the older, endearing professor trying to be hip, I look like the young professor who is most definitely not hip.

Hello all! Don't forget that today is the deadline for submitting to the 2025 Election Science, Reform, and Administration Conference! I am on the program committee and happy to answer any questions.

Ever wondered whether people support felon disenfranchisement because they want to limit the political power of others? Well, do I have the paper for you! @spsanews.bsky.social #SPSA2025

I want this cited as my contribution to the paper.

Editors, please stop letting reviewers make claims/request specific citations to the literature in their reviews without requiring they include citations. If I have to have citations to support my paper’s arguments, reviewers should have to have citations to support their critiques.

Super excited to be receiving the CMS Data Innovation Award w/ my awesome coauthor, Rachel Torres!

Using the CMS data, we show racial attitudes influence support for voter qualifications among white Americans!

Thanks to the organizers of the CMS for making the data publicly available!

In the last two weeks, I've had a working paper submitted for review, a paper under review accepted for revise and resubmit, a paper under revise and resubmit accepted for publication, and my co-edited volume published! Head over to josephcoll.com to check out my work!

Does scrolling Bluesky while running your own replication files to ensure they run correctly count as work?

I have officially joined BlueSky! And as my first post, I am excited to announce I received word this week of not one, but two (!) accepted articles at POQ! Great way to end finals week!
