Kids getting kids out to vote

With the midterm elections less than a month away, there’s an energized push to get the vote out, and an equally energized effort to register new voters – and in particular, young voters.

The Idaho nonprofit Babe Vote is run by high school students and their goal is to register, educate and engage voters.

Our Morning Edition host George Prentice sat downwith high school student Amaia Clayton and activist Sam Sandmire to talk more about Babe Vote and upcoming deadline for Idahoans to pre-register online.

As host of Morning Edition, I'm the luckiest person I've ever known because I spend my days listening to smart, passionate, engaging people. It’s a public trust. I lean in to talk with actors, poets, writers and volunteers who make Idaho that much more special.
As Senior Producer of our live daily talk show Idaho Matters, I’m able to indulge my love of storytelling and share all kinds of information (I was probably a Town Crier in a past life!). My career has allowed me to learn something new everyday and to share that knowledge with all my friends on the radio.
