2024 is coming, and it's big: there are 33 Senate races along with the Presidential and House races. The coming school year will be critical in getting high school students registered and preregistered in key states, so they're ready to use their power and strengthen our democracy.
Did you know?
- 16 million people will have become old enough to vote between 2020 and 2024?
- In key states, <30% of 18-year-olds are registered to vote (according to our research)
- 40% of high school students do not go on to college
- 70% of US teens live in states where they can preregister to vote at 16 or 17. The rest can do it closer to 18 … but still while they're in high school!
- 86% of REGISTERED youth turned out to vote in 2020 (when they're registered, they vote!)
- The number of youth becoming eligible to vote before November 2024 far surpasses margins of victory in close elections
