Barack the Vote or Campaign for McCain?


It’s official! Rock the Vote is teaming up with Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU’s) to launch "Battle of the Vote." It’s the largest campaign of its kind to register 2 million young adult voters.

"Battle of the Vote" is history in the making. It’s an innovative promotion tool that allows HBCU’s to compete to register over 8000 students and young citizens to vote.

This drive specifically targets Black Americans who make up 36.7 percent of the voting population. Rock the Vote wants to increase that number as well as motivate and encourage current voters to continue to strive for political change.

Don’t sleep on this opportunity. Rock the Vote has been in contact with Black American media and organizations; Sister2Sister magazine, The Source Magazine, Black Entertainment Television (BET) and other media outlets to ensure that this drive is a guaranteed success.
If you and your school isn't down for the cause yet, then you better get on it ‘cause we're taking over one youth at a time. This is our year. This is the young person’s year. If you wanna be heard join forces and demand to be heard.

Barack the vote or campaign for McCain. Which ever you choose, make it happen on your campus. For more information on "Battle of Vote" contact the Rock the Vote office.
