The power of youth to vote will never decline

In actuality, young voters find it more difficult to find out about elections, schedule time to cast a ballot, and even to be aware that they are taking place. Knowing the power of voting, we strive to make election and voting information as accessible as possible, while also acknowledging the obstacles that younger voters must overcome. We are meeting young Americans on social media, where more than 40% of them get their news. Young people's voices count, so we want them to understand the importance of voting. And we'll be right there on Instagram if that's how we contact them! Young people show up to vote when they are equipped with the necessary knowledge. The pudding has the proof. Trends over the last ten years indicate that the number of young voters has increased; the highest young voter participation occurred in the 2018 midterm elections, and the second-highest in the 2022 midterm elections. In addition, initiatives that young people are strongly committed to have gained political traction in recent years. One such policy is the cancellation of student debt, which was previously viewed as unachievable. This demonstrates the impact of being present! We might achieve significant progress on topics like reproductive rights protection, gun violence prevention, and racial justice if every person cast a ballot in every election. And we’ve got to do more than just vote ourselves. We must do our part in educating our communities. As the election approaches, on November 5th, 2024, we need to talk to our friends and family about the importance of their vote. Are you registered to vote? Check here
