Vote Smart

Politicians are always trying to persuade you with their biased propaganda. Vote based your beliefs not the popular choice!

From Trump to Sanders, we are always faced with biased propaganda. Sometimes this is positive biased propaganda, however other times it can be negative. Negative propaganda is when candidates exaggerate their opponent’s flaws and glorify their promises to their voters. Don’t fall for biased propaganda, and look at the facts!

Although 29.4% of voters are in the 18-24 age bracket, only 58.5% of 18-24 year-olds, who are eligible to vote, are participating in the elections (File and Statistic Brain n.p.). Whereas the other age groups are all lower than 29% of the voters, but have a greater influence on the elections due to a higher voter turn-out. As young adults, popular media like Tumblr and Twitter tend to affect our voting. Don’t give in to the popular bias, and vote for those who support your beliefs. Build and form your beliefs after thoroughly looking at positives and negatives of each candidate.
