Question: What do you think can or should be done to improve voter turnout among college students?

political science freshman

"If you're not going to vote, then you're not going to; if you want to vote then you'll be interested. You can't bribe college students with candy or something."

pre-physiological science freshman

"I think it would help to let college students know how important voting is. We need to impress upon people that voting is very important for our country and for us."

"They need to make their platforms more focused on us, the students. Base them on the interest and issues that concern college students. Because they don't focus on students, they don't care."

"Just being a democratic country and all, I think it's very important that every eligible person who can vote should vote. When I worked at a voting booth, you only saw very old people and people who had just turned 18."

pre-business sophomore

"Have many different ways to register and have voting booths on campus. A lot of kids that live on campus don't have cars; we should bring the polls to them."

"I think people should be on campus walking around with voter registration cards or something. I think people just don't know where to start the voting process."
