To determine the best conclusion from the information provided in the table, let's analyze the data step-by-step:

1. Voter Turnout in States with Same-Day Registration:
- In 2008: 71%
- In 2012: 71%

2. Voter Turnout in States without Same-Day Registration:
- In 2008: 62%
- In 2012: 59%

Next, let's compare the voter turnout percentages for each year:

- Comparison in 2008:
- Voter turnout in states with same-day registration (71%) is higher than in states without same-day registration (62%).

- Comparison in 2012:
- Voter turnout in states with same-day registration (71%) is higher than in states without same-day registration (59%).

From these comparisons, we can consistently observe that states with same-day registration had a higher voter turnout than states without same-day registration for both years (2008 and 2012).

Hence, the best conclusion that can be drawn from the information in the table is:

"States with same-day registration had a higher voter turnout than states without same-day registration."
