Young people are registered to vote in numbers that mirror the historic 2018 election and foreshadow electoral power in 2022. Nationally and in more than 20 states across the country, there are more young people (ages 18-24) registered to vote by November 2022 than there were in November 2018. That includes increases in key battlegrounds like Georgia, Pennsylvania, Arizona, and Nevada.

However, expanding the youth electorate remains a structural challenge across the country. Most states lag behind in registration of 18- and 19 year-olds, highlighting the need to focus on the diverse group of young people who are new to the potential electorate.
