Youth-focused voter engagement organizations saw record high voter registration and engagement numbers on National Voter Registration Day
Motivated in part by the Covid-19 death toll, the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg and what organizers describe as the urgency of the 2020 election, organizations including Rock the Vote, NextGen America and When We All Vote and companies such as Snapchat broke records with their voter engagement initiatives on Tuesday.Rock the Vote, the longstanding nonpartisan voter registration organization, had their biggest National Voter Registration Day ever, the organization told CNN.
Since launching their voter registration initiative, Snapchat has registered a total of more than 884,000 voters through the app, more than doubling the 425,000 voters Snapchat registered ahead of the 2018 midterms. In 2016, the social media app only registered around 25,000 voters."We're seeing record interest from Gen Z in this election," Sofia Gross, public policy manager for Snap, told CNN.
