When we get young people to show up and vote, we win. Join the fight.
NextGen America has selected youth-dense precincts across the country to monitor over the course of the primaries and caucuses. Each of these “Youth Vote Indicator Precincts” contains a high concentration of voters between the ages of 18 to 35. Turnout in these precincts will allow us to gauge young voter enthusiasm for the upcoming general election.
Turnout will reflect a combination of early votes, absentee ballots and election day turnout as counts roll in.
