Abstract

This project was completed as part of the 2018-2019 Resilient Communities Project (rcp.umn.edu) partnership with Ramsey County. Historically, Ward 1 Precinct 9 in St. Paul, which encompasses the Frogtown Neighborhood, has experienced lower-than-average election turnout when compared to the rest of the state, especially among voters ages 18-24. Ramsey County project lead Joe Mansky worked with students in Dr. Scott Abernathy's POL 1914: Generation Now: Young Adult Political Action first-year undergraduate seminar to explore strategies for increasing youth voter turnout and candidate engagement in the precinct.
