How Can We Get More Young People to Vote?
Season 3
Episode 2

That is especially true for younger generations who have historically had very low voter turnout rates in the U.S. By 2020, there will be an estimated 22 million teens who are eligible to vote in their first elections, making them the largest voting bloc in America. So why don't young people vote?
