According to People, “The goal is to engage 1 million young voters and get 50,000 young people registered ahead of the 2020 elections.”
The artists are helping with this by offering incentives for people who vote. The outlet states, “Celebs will reward and engage young Americans by offering exclusive experiences, performances and memorabilia donated by artists and entertainers that can only be unlocked through checking your voting registration status.”
Items up for grabs include a virtual dance tutorial by Usher or a happy-hour meet-and-greet with Quavo.
