Young voters consistently turn out at lower rates than older voters—but that doesn't mean they're less interested or engaged.

Center for Inclusive Democracy Director Mindy Romero points to systemic barriers that make participation more difficult for young people, from frequent moves that complicate voter registration to outreach strategies that often overlook younger voters altogether.

Today is Election Day!

Does every vote matter? Absolutely.

As Center for Inclusive Democracy Director Mindy Romero explains, every individual's vote contributes to the collective voice that shapes our elections, races, and initiatives. One vote may not decide every outcome, but every vote is part of the total that does.

Whether an issue seems certain to pass or the race appears too close to call, voting is more than influencing a result—it's an expression of your values, needs, and priorities.

You never know how close an election could be. Most importantly, your participation matters.
