This is why we Vote:

“TODAY we’re launching “This is Why We Vote,” a campaign to mobilize young voters to show up in huge numbers this fall. Our generation is a powerful force to be reckoned with—and we have so much at stake this year. It’s time to bring the conversation back to *issues* and demand real change. WATCH THE VIDEO and SHARE.” ~ New Era Colorado

“…The single best thing about youth voting I’ve seen all year (for real, for real).
It’s especially huge, because this is apparently the week where the national political narrative (once again) turns a skeptical eye towards young people. We know where we stand, and we know what we’ll do. And I’m so glad to have this illustration of it.” ~ Toby Crittenden

I got chills four times watching this. How many for you?
