Billionaire Tom Steyer's turnout group shifts focus to mail-in voting amid Post Office crisis
Polls taken by NexGen suggest that, while many young voters do want to participate in 2020 via mail-in ballots, some don't fully understand how to do so. The progressive nonprofit organization is pushing ahead with a number of new initiatives to rectify that.
Steyer told CNBC in a recent interview that he believes the focus on mail-in balloting should be about educating voters on how to go about using the mail system as a way to vote. He pointed to NextGen's recent voter outreach through phone text messages with information on how to best receive a mail ballot.
Steyer also discussed the work being done by Give Green, a joint fundraising effort between NextGen, LCV Victory Fund and NRDC Action Fund PAC. The groups support over a dozen candidates, including Biden himself, who they believe has polices that can successfully take on climate change. Steyer told CNBC that Give Green has raised at least $30 million in direct contributions for their candidates.
