Remember when everyone said young people had “shifted to the right”? 2025 says: not so fast.

Young voters showed up — informed, engaged, and ready to protect democracy.

Let’s keep fueling that energy by helping every teen register, learn, and lead! 💪🗳️

Hi Chalkbeat! Did you know that as of last week only 33% of NYC's 18-year-olds were registered to vote? State law allows for preregistration at 16, so we'd love to see the next mayor and schools chancellor work to ensure every student is registered BEFORE they graduate HS! data.thecivicscenter.org

Also notable: the huge voter registration gap between 18yos and older voters, which we study. Teens can close this gap by running drives in their high schools. We show them (and their teachers) how for free!

Welcome first time voters 👋 🎃

Every year, four million Americans turn 18 and become eligible to vote.Young people can make a real difference in the outcome of elections, especially local ones. But you can’t vote if you’re not registered!

DYK: Schools are supposed to teach democracy.

To set students up to succeed, teachers are expected to have controversial and political conversations.

What do you think? We want to hear from students and educators in the comments 💭
