摘要

信息和通讯技术能帮助公民监督他们的选举吗?为了回答这个问题,我们在哥伦比亚分析了一个大规模的实地实验。我们利用Facebook向400多万潜在选民发送广告,鼓励公民举报选举违规行为。我们还交叉随机化了候选人是否在一个城市的子集中被告知竞选活动。报告总数和有证据支持的报告数量大幅增加。通过一系列广泛的措施,选举违规行为有所减少。最后,报告运动减少了依赖于违规行为的候选人的选票份额。这种轻触式干预比决策者传统上使用的监测措施更具成本效益。(凝胶c93, d12, d72, d83, o17)

All Eyes on Them: A Field Experiment on Citizen Oversight and Electoral Integrity
Can information and communication technologies help citizens monitor their elections? We analyze a large-scale field experiment designed to answer this question in Colombia. We leveraged Facebook advertisements sent to over 4 million potential voters to encourage citizen reporting of electoral irregularities. We also cross-randomized whether candidates were informed about the campaign in a subset of municipalities. Total reports, and evidence-backed ones, experienced a large increase. Across a wide array of measures, electoral irregularities decreased. Finally, the reporting campaign reduced the vote share of candidates dependent on irregularities. This light-touch intervention is more cost-effective than monitoring efforts traditionally used by policymakers. (JEL C93, D12, D72, D83, O17)
