Rock The Vote is the largest non-profit organization that is working to get Millennials to the polls during voting season. Since 1990, Rock The Vote has enlisted the help of celebrities to support voting and demonstrate the importance of voting in America. This year, Lil’ Jon has nailed this music video encouraging youths everywhere to turn out and vote. Being the largest non-partisan organization in the United States, Rock The Vote wants to educate and encourage young voters to turn out this Tuesday. “Rock the Vote has pioneered ways to make voting easier by simplifying and demystifying voter registration and elections for young adults.” With the help of Darren Criss, turning out for education, E.J. Johnson, turning out for marraige equality, Lena Dunham, turning out for reproductive rights, and many others, this video will have you turn out for voting as well.
