Going into the 2018 midterms, America needed one thing: votes. The 2014 midterms had the lowest turnout in 70 years, but the 2016 election could be different. 15 million Americans were eligible to be new voters, and if they turned out, this generation would be the largest voice of the election. So, we put the election in their hands with #TheFutureIsVoting. In the end,, 2016 had the largest turnout in the history of midterm elections ever, and we like to think we had a little bit to do with that.
