Dear young people, "Don't vote." Sincerely, old white people
These senior citizens have a message for the young folks in America: "Don't vote."
This country belongs to whomever shows up. And do you know who shows up for every election? Old people. But only 46% of people 18-34 years old voted in the last election.
So the elderly have a disproportionate influence on our politics and our country. And a lot of them would like to keep it that way.
Message heard loud and clear, and I'm not even that young.
Are you registered to vote?
