Phase 2 – Validate assumptions
I tried to validate my assumptions are right, googled “why young people don’t vote” or “politically ignorant” and I came across the article from CNN politics, it saidMillennials are drawn into politics over issues that affect them, like student debt, the economy, the environment, and health care, said Erin Loos Cutraro founder of She Should Run, a nonpartisan group that helps women run for office.
“Millennials especially want to put their time toward something they know they can change”
Phase 3 – Summary for next step
It seems hopeless but if they don’t take an action, nothing will be changed. Let’s change the angles of the conversation for a moment. How does politics affects on society? Everything we do. Health insurance, cost of food, taxes, and so on. Politics would influence your personal life especially for when you need help. But unfortunately people don’t care about politics unless you get old, get sick or pregnant.
Politics is all about you, individuals. It will affect you directly.
