Due October 19th, 2010 - Most people only vote every 4 years, but there are midterm elections across the country on November 2nd that are really important. Rather than tell you why we think that is, we want you to hear from you!

About the Contest
Create a 1-5 minute video answering one of the following questions.

• Why do you plan to vote again in 2010?
• Why should young people, who have increased their voter turnout steadily since 2000, vote again in 2010?
• How do you plan to inspire participation in our democracy?

You can talk about participating, you can focus on an issue, you can do something serious or creative or ridiculous, high tech or from your laptop—nothing’s off limits, just make sure your video doesn’t implicitly endorse any one candidate or party over another. Keep your content to the importance of voting or all the things voting impacts.
