Many of the studies I have seen came out of the Brennan Center.
AFAIK, they are non-partisan, even if some folks don't agree with their results.

Here's their take on modernizing the voter registration system... seems to make a lot of sense.

Our current system is rife with errors and potential for corruption.
My personal belief is that the voter fraud that does occur is not some folks that decided to vote twice, it is political groups with access who manipulate a bad system and create the fraud for their own benefit.
Demanding ID's from individuals will not stop this kind of fraud.
Modernizing the system, cleaning the rolls and creating a manageable database will.
