Youth Voter Engagement
Bringing voter registration awareness to youth
Here at Vital Votes, we aim to get nonvoters information on registration and their ballot. We also want to raise awareness of the poor turnout of young voters and help more get registered and learn about voting. It is no secret that young Americans between the ages of 18-29 are the lowest voting demographic in this country. We hope to change that.
