My Work Getting Out the Vote at Davidson College

Over the fall semester, I dedicated more than 130 hours to registering, educating and mobilizing student voters. 

As president of the Center for Political Engagement (CPE) and field director of the Davidson chapter of the Young People’s Alliance, I used every resource at my disposal to help students cast informed votes. In September and October, you could often find me at a voter registration table in the Alvarez College Union, talking with students and handing out nonpartisan voter guides for local North Carolina races. 

Through frequent tabling and partnerships with Patterson Court Council (PCC) organizations, residence hall counselors, and student clubs, CPE registered 199 new voters and secured 304 pledge-to-vote signatures.
