1.	Hansen, Michael A., et al. (author) The Partisan Impact on Local Government Dissemination of COVID-19 Information : Assessing U.S. County Government Websites 2021 In: Canadian Journal of Political Science. - : Cambridge University Press. - 0008-4239 .- 1744-9324. ; 54:1, s. 150-162 Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract This study explores the relationship between local government dissemination of COVID-19 information and partisanship. The unit of analysis is all official county government websites in the United States. In particular, we investigate if there is a correlation between the overall partisanship of a county and whether a county government's website 1) mentions COVID-19, and 2) provides safety instructions concerning COVID-19. We hypothesize that mass partisanship will impact the probability that a county government's website provides information related to the coronavirus. We find that a larger share of Democratic voters in a county is associated with an increase in the probability that a county government's website mentions COVID-19 and provides safety instructions for their residents. The results hold even after controlling for population density, internet subscriptions, and COVID-19 cases and deaths. The finding indicates that citizens' access to information, even on matters of public health, are partially a consequence of partisanship.
