Deputy Operations Director - Philadelphia, United States - Project 26 Pennsylvania
2 weeks ago
Description
About the Race
In Pennsylvania, there are over 600,000 students enrolled in state colleges and universities-that's the most of any battleground.
These young voters have the numbers and the power to determine the outcomes of elections up and down the ballot in 2024.
And while young Americans do believe they have the power to change the country, just 2 in 5 say they feel well-qualified to participate in politics.1 Most young Americans do not believe they have been adequately prepared to understand the impact of their vote, or even how to cast it.
2 That uncertainty depresses turnout:
in 2022, just under 1 in 4 young voters cast a ballot.3 Young people are not apathetic-we are failing to adequately prepare and engage them.
We're building a scrappy and innovative operation to protect and expand democracy by elevating youth leadership on campuses across the state in order to empower thousands of college students to take control of their futures, get organized, and vote in the 2024 elections.
