“Young people only care about themselves.”

ⓘ 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗽𝘂𝘁𝗲𝗱 by historic youth voter turnout in the 2020 general election

[LWVNJ @LWVNJ]

Receive notice in the mail alerting you your ballot has a signature issue? It's an easy fix. The notice includes a form that must be received by your County Board of Elections by Nov 18. If you don't return the form, your ballot won't be counted so check your mail and act fast!

[When We All Vote @WhenWeAllVote]

Increasing youth voter turnout is about addressing voter education and access—not apathy.

When we give young people accurate information, expanded opportunities to vote, and space to ask questions, they turn out to vote in record numbers.

Although we know the results of the presidential election, there are still elections across the country for the House and Senate, as well as state and local offices, being decided. We still need to #CountEveryVote.

[Library of Congress @librarycongress]

The Library's Veteran's History Project collections are as unique as the veterans and families who contribute them. This #VeteransDay, listen to veterans discuss submitting a collection of their unique military memories.

In 2016, 100 million people didn’t vote.

In 2020, 100 million people voted early.

We expanded access to the ballot box, and we now have record turnout.

[Lt. Governor Sheila Oliver @LtGovOliver]

‼️ Most votes ever cast in an election in New Jersey! 👏🏾

[When We All Vote @WhenWeAllVote]

Despite the pandemic and deliberate barriers to the ballot box:

🗳 Voters turned out in record numbers.
🗳 Election officials are counting every vote.
🗳 Our democracy is stronger for it.

Youth voters contributed a full 21% of Georgia’s votes—the highest percentage of youth voters recorded in the country.

Young people in Georgia helped decide the presidential election.

And now they will decide two Senate run-offs.

NEW JERSEY, STAND UP!!

[America Votes @AmericaVotes]

We are so thankful for every single person that made this election break participation records.

From voters who turned out in record numbers, to poll workers and election officers for ensuring that every eligible ballot could be cast. #ThankYouElectionHeroes #ThankYouVoters

[When We All Vote @WhenWeAllVote]

The basis of American democracy is that we pick our leaders - our leaders do not pick their voters.

We celebrate the millions of Americans who overcame barriers to the ballot box, mobilized their communities and voted in record breaking numbers.

We the people have the power.

[When We All Vote @WhenWeAllVote]

There are tens of millions of votes left to count.

Local election officials are hard at work counting them now, and every hour that goes by is adding to the tally and emphasizing the voters’ decisive choices.

Accuracy is more important than speed.

[When We All Vote @WhenWeAllVote]

Every eligible voter should have their voice heard and their vote counted.

When we take the time to count and verify every ballot, it’s a sign that our democracy is working. #CountEveryVote

Three more hours! Let’s do this.

[Governor Phil Murphy @GovMurphy]

Over 3.25 million New Jerseyans have cast their ballots.

That’s 82% of total turnout in 2016.

Incredible. Keep it up.
