Reason #5: It’s not effective. Some young people think voting doesn’t matter because voting is not an effective way of creating change.

Reason #4: I move all the time. Studies show young adults move a lot, an average of 6 times by the time they’re 30 years old.

Reason #3: I don’t know how. Students hear lots of voices telling them to register to vote and vote.

Reason #2: I Don’t Know Enough to Vote. First-time voters might think they don’t know enough about the issues to cast a ballot for a particular candidate or party.
