To analyze the table and draw a conclusion, let's examine the voter turnout percentages provided for the states with and without same-day voter registration for the years 2008 and 2012.

### Voter Turnout Comparison

States with Same-Day Registration:
- 2008: 71%
- 2012: 71%

States without Same-Day Registration:
- 2008: 62%
- 2012: 59%

### Conclusions Based on Data

1. Comparison of Turnout in 2008:
- States with same-day registration: 71%
- States without same-day registration: 62%

2. Comparison of Turnout in 2012:
- States with same-day registration: 71%
- States without same-day registration: 59%

From this data, we can see that the voter turnout percentage is consistently higher in states with same-day registration compared to those without it. Specifically, there is a difference of:
- 2008: 71% - 62% = 9% higher in states with same-day registration.
- 2012: 71% - 59% = 12% higher in states with same-day registration.

### Conclusion

Therefore, the best conclusion we can draw from the information in the table is:

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