#student vote

[weirdstrangeandawful]

I just went out to grab my voter registration card from mail for the upcoming election (April 28th) and I just saw this poster. Any and every Canadian citizen can and should vote with the minimum logistical challenges, including students living away from home.

The poster is in French but here is the corresponding english webpage with the same and more information:

Students and young electors – Elections Canada

Information on student voting during the 2025 federal election in Canada.

If you’re still unsure, Vote on Campus is tomorrow (Sunday the 13th) through Wednesday the 16th at participating campuses and advanced polls are the 18th through 21st. If you screw something up at either of these, you are still able to vote on the 28th. Voting shouldn't be stressful. Just do your best and get out to vote. Bring your friends!

UK academics face furious backlash for encouraging students to vote

Universities have a legal obligation to encourage voter registration. This has prompted an angry reaction in some areas

If you're yet to vote, get out there and do it now. There is a genuine chance the youth vote could kick the tories to the kerb. There is a genuine chance Boris Johnson could lose his seat. Go and vote!!

Hearing rumours about another election and CCHQ asking for candidates. Also seeing rumours that it will be timed to ruin the student vote. We shouldn't let this decimate voter rolls. Please re-blog for UK students to see.

Re-Registering College Students to Vote is Urgent

Here’s a problem I haven’t seen enough coverage of. With millions of college students living back with their parents in the fall, those who are registered in their college towns WILL NOT BE ELIGIBLE TO VOTE in their parents’ home town/state/district.

Unless they register to vote where they are now living.

With most states having a registration deadline of about 30 days before the election, it’s imperative that we start pushing these students to register back home, if they know they will not be living in their adopted college town.

While this is important for every college student voter, it is even more so in the swing states, whether they allow easy vote-by-mail/absentee, early voting, or just in-person voting.

If you know a college student who usually lives in their college town, but is back home due to the pandemic… Ask them if they are registered to vote where they are now living. And give them advice on how to get registered.
