Brigid's Blog: Rallying The Youth Vote

Posted on Blog by Brigid Shea · January 06, 2014 8:14 AM

Long-time local community activist and leader, Paul Saldaña, and I are working together on a mentoring initiative to help young people learn how to exercise their civic power. We want to inspire a movement for voter participation among the youth in Travis County. According to the 2010 Census, about 153,000 of the 1 million-plus Travis County residents are 18 to 24 years old. That’s a lot of voting power just waiting to be harnessed! However, according to Travis County records, only about 35,000 voters 18 to 25 years old voted in the 2012 general election.

Read more about Brigid's thoughts on Youth Voter participation and what she wants to do to increase it.
