YP Impact member, Maggie Nonnenmacher, was featured in this interview on 88Nine Radio Milwaukee.

By Adam Carr

With each person I interviewed about their efforts leading up to the November 2nd election, I posed them a question that cuts straight to the core of this week -- "Why vote?" While the question itself is straightforward, effective answers are not obvious. Fortunately, I had the good luck to chat with some pretty clever and thoughtful folks.

There’s no question young people don’t vote as often as their older co-workers, and this election looks to be no exception.

A recent survey from the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press found 45 percent of people under 30 said they will “definitely” vote, compared with 76 percent of voters age 30 and older.

But a coalition of young professionals group is trying to boost that under-30 number in the Milwaukee area.

"I do not need to vote, it won't make a difference anyway."

Have you ever heard this from a friend or co-worker?  Well Maggie Nonnenmacher from YP Impact had this conversation with a co-worker, and instead of just telling her why she should vote, she decided to tell all of Milwaukee why to vote.
