"Young people have the power to decide this election where abortion rights, climate action and our economic futures are at stake. Since Gen Z organizers know best how to mobilize Gen Z, every contact our team makes is absolutely crucial, especially in battleground states and districts," said Santiago Mayer, the executive director of Voters of Tomorrow, who started the group in 2019 when he was 17.

Voters of Tomorrow is officially nonpartisan, with a focus mainly on voter registration, including in U.S. House swing districts. But in spring, it joined more than a dozen other youth-led groups that endorsed the Biden-Harris ticket.

Its 2024 voter registration efforts are primarily targeted in Georgia, Florida and Wisconsin - presidential battlegrounds where it says young voters are positioned to have the biggest impact in November.

Here's hoping that prophecy translates into a substantial portion of the 41 million Gen Z youth indeed turn out and vote this election. As a fading boomer, it's simply tragic that we're leaving such a screwed up world for our grandchildren to deal with. But as we creep closer to the edge of the stage, these young people seem to be far better informed and engaged than my generation was at their age.

But then again, we didn't grow up having to practice live shooter drills and worry about our schools being turned into killing fields by deranged individuals wielding weapons designed primarily for use in wars to maim and kill.

Unsolicited calls and texts are an annoyance for most people. They even make some people less inclined to support a candidate.

Not so much Gen Z. They roll a little differently than easily triggered Gen Xers(?) like you.
