NC Federation of Young Professional Republicans
Voter Information

The number of young voters are increasing at a dramatic rate. The United States Census reported that there are currently 44 million eligible young voters, which represents 1/5 of the electorate. These 44 million voters differ in many ways; 61% White, 17% Hispanic, 15% Black, and 4% Asian. They are active politically, conscious of issues, and volunteer in their communities. This generation, the millennials, are dramatically changing the landscape of politics.

There are many stereotypes given when speaking about young people voting habits but these stereotypes are myths.

“We have now seen three consecutive presidential elections with substantial increases in youth turnout…We appear to have entered a new era of stronger youth engagement—also shown by high rates of volunteering and community service.” - CIRCLE Director Peter Levine.

According to the Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement in 2008 the dramatic increase in young people voting accounts for at least 60% of the overall increase in the number of votes that were cast. This suggests that the 2008 election mobilized young people more than any other age groups.
