“Citizens in a democracy aren’t born, they are made.”
- Benjamin Franklin

Our Challenge
• In 2004, young people aged 18-24 voted at lower rates than any other age group.
• 42% vs. almost 60% of all eligible voters.
• In 2008, despite unprecedented enthusiasm and increased turnout, young voters 18-24 still did not break the 50% threshold. [CIRCLE]
