Our new study conducted with Opportunity Youth United highlights opportunities to make voting more accessible for low-income youth.

Our exclusive pre-election poll finds that young people are paying attention to the election and intend to support Democrats.

Youth who live in places where they perceive few opportunities for civic engagement see fewer political ads, which is connected to lower voter turnout.

In the Democratic primary race for the Massachusetts 7th District, Pressley drew support from precincts with more youth and people of color.

Youth of color and those without college experience can face more—and different—barriers to voting.

The youth-led movement against gun violence has focused on voter registration, which may help increase the electoral engagement of the youngest eligible voters.

The youngest eligible voters (ages 18-19) tend to lag behind their older peers, highlighting the need for efforts to engage them in democracy.

Young voters turned out, and their decisive preference for the Democratic candidate may have helped swing a close election.

Less than 2% of young Bostonians voted in the 2015 mayoral election.
