How would you go about getting our youngest voters engaged in the electoral process?

This is a good question! Since the voting age was lowered to 18, the percentage of those voters have gone down steadily until Bill Clinton saw a spike in '92. We all know that seniors (not hs seniors, but those age 62+) vote in high numbers, but what's up with the 18-24 year olds??? I introduced legislation in my first term to allow voter registration forms to be placed in high schools and included with hs senior info packets.

That year the Rs were in the majority in the State House and they killed the bill. One Rep said, "We don't need to make it any easier than it already is"...

Those seeking public office need to spend time with that voting block and give them a compelling reason to cast a vote! With the federal administration's cuts to financial aid and favoritism of Sally Mae, college students have a stake in these elections!
