Governor partisanship explains the adoption of statewide mandates to wear face coverings	2020-09-02		.txt	text/plain	6221	338	57	Controlling for the seven-day moving average of reported COVID-19 deaths and state citizen ideology, we find the governor's party affiliation is the most important predictor of state differences in the timing of indoor public mask mandates. Figure 2 reports the results from our baseline model, which controls for the log of COVID-19 deaths per million population reported in the state as seven-day moving averages, the ideological orientation of each state's citizenry, and the party of the governor (18; 19; 20) . Researchers and policy-makers use several metrics to track SARS-CoV-2 transmission, and governors have access to daily data on COVID-19 measures including confirmed cases, deaths, and positive test result rates. We therefore consider models adding controls for more timely indicators of the spread of SARS-CoV-2: the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases per million reported in each state each day and the rate of test positivity (in both cases, as sevenday moving averages).	./cache/cord-332577-2z5pchyq.txt	./txt/cord-332577-2z5pchyq.txt
