Voters of Tomorrow, the countrys largest Gen Z-led grassroots political outreach group, hit a new engagement milestone for a tight election that could be decided by the youngest voters.
The group says it hit one million voter engagements, which includes 200,000 calls and 800,000 texts mostly to Gen Zers a generation that encompasses 41 million people eligible to vote in November. Its main goal is registering voters and helping them make a plan for voting.
A Voters of Tomorrow spokesperson said a phone bank conducted jointly with Swifties for Kamala volunteers helped it reach its goal Tuesday, on National Voter Registration Day, when both parties intensified their outreach efforts to register voters ahead of looming state deadlines.
Young people have the power to decide this election where abortion rights, climate action and our economic futures are at stake. Since Gen Z organizers know best how to mobilize Gen Z, every contact our team makes is absolutely crucial, especially in battleground states and districts, said Santiago Mayer, the executive director of Voters of Tomorrow, who started the group in 2019 when he was 17.

I think this does not bode well for Trump and the Republicans in this and future elections.

(35,512 posts)What's going to surprise a lot of people are the number of Repukes who won't vote for Chump this time. Either they will hold their nose and vote for Kamala, or they just won't vote at all. But they don't want Chump back in the White House, and that's the important thing.
Yes we still have MAGAs in Pennsylvania and they're loud and annoying, but they don't have the numbers anymore. Joe Biden won PA in 2020 and Kamala/Tim will win by a larger margin in 2024.
