young folks dont care and dont know who their elected officials are. WHO CARES?!

in 2016, there was the lowest turnout in 70 years.

in the most important democracy in the history of the world, this is an outrage!
 
Ummm stop passing bad policies and enforce the laws on the books? Or it might be easier to get the to vote Republican lol!

The secret to keeping young kids voting democrat? Keep them educated in bigotry and hatred and keep them angry in spite of the fact that they have it easier than any generation in history.

Excuse me sir/mam/ewe, but once again, you are showing your lack of intelligence. The United States is a Representative Republic, not a democracy. How many times do you have to be told the TRUTH, before you get it into that peabrain…

By the way, 2016 was much higher turn out than for 2012.

How many Americans actually, you know, vote?
According to the United States Election Project, an average of 59.7 percent of eligible voters cast their ballots. (The turnout number is lower when you just look at voting-age Americans, but not all Americans over 18 can vote, for various reasons.) Compare that to President Barack Obama’s re-election in 2012, when 58.6 percent of eligible voters cast ballots—or 2000’s presidential election, which saw just 54.2 percent turn out to the polls—and the 2016 results aren’t too shabby.
I love how this guy/girl/thing can say some bullshit and not post anything to back up his/her/its claim...

i meant to say 2014 instead of 2016. you're right. there was high turnout in 2016 but that was because of the overwhelming popularity of Secretary Clinton (and despite the unpopular Trump)

You'll have to find morons to vote dim.
 
voter turnout is especially low among low income americans, whose lives are most greatly affected by government policy

it is also low among young people under 30, the generation, my generation, that will have to live with the decisions that are being made without our input
 
in america today, the state of our democracy is such that politics is something that THE OTHER people engage in (mexicans and rich people), not the average american
 
After a young person supports themselves and pays income taxes for a few years they become mainstream.
 
"i believe the Democrat party bears an enormous amount of responsibility for this sad state of affairs. over the years, that party has closed its door to ordinary americans, working people, the poor, young people, minorities, who once filled its ranks.

instead of holding town halls with ordinary people, most dems spent their time raising money" - Crazy Bernie
 
inspired by Crazy Bernie, young people have begun to run for state and local office all across the country and most often they are winning!
