One-on-One with Robert Reich
Election day is 4 days away, but voters aren’t wasting any time getting to the polls.
According to the United States Elections Project, more than 6.6 million Americans have already cast their ballots. That’s ten times the number of voters that voted at this time during the 2016 Election.
Within the next several days, eligible voters will continue to show up to the polls to cast their ballots. But one group, in particular, is showing up in record numbers: younger voters.
“My observation is that younger voters are more actively involved than ever before,” explains UC Berkeley professor and former Secretary of Labor, Robert Reich.
The reason? A consequential election following a global pandemic and summer of civil unrest combined with the benefits of mail-in voting.
Reich laments that because younger, college voters are busy with school, face logistical challenges with voter registration, and don’t often want to wait in long lines which have contributed to lower turnout rates in previous elections.
However, with the addition of 2 drop boxes for mail-in ballots on campus and classes canceled on Election day, the barriers that were once there, are reduced.
But voting is just one step. Now it’s up to younger voters to hold politicians accountable.
Reich agrees, saying it’s important we remember that voting is just the start because, “even if you do get the people you want in office, you need to continue to organize and mobilize to make sure they do good things.” -
