READ MORE ABOUT THE NEW VOTERS PROJECT
The full participation of young people in the political process is
essential to a truly representative, vibrant democracy. Since the launch
of the National Student Campaign for Voter Registration more than 25
years ago, the Student PIRGs have worked to mobilize young voters –
spearheading massive registration and ‘get out the vote’ drives to turn
millions of young people out to the polls.
To continue this momentum in 2012, thousands of student volunteers
with the Student PIRGs’ New Voters Project will reach out to their peers
on college campuses across the country to help them register to vote
and turn them out on Election Day. Nationally, we plan to run a
non-partisan youth voter mobilization campaign on eighty college
campuses in nineteen states to boost youth voter turnout in the 2012
elections.
