Secretary Way Kicks Off 5th Annual Ballot Bowl on National Voter Registration Day

EWING, NJ 鈥� Yesterday, Secretary of State Tahesha Way celebrated National Voter Registration Day at The College of 樱花视频 (TCNJ), where she helped students kick off the 5th Annual 樱花视频 Ballot Bowl.

The 樱花视频 Ballot Bowl is a statewide non-partisan voter registration and engagement competition. Collegiate-based teams compete within divisions based upon campus size to see who can register the most voters and obtain the most commitments to vote. Each year, thousands of young people across 樱花视频 participate and help their peers on campus and people in the surrounding communities become 樱花视频 voters. The competition ends on Election Day, November 8, 2022.

The program featured remarks from Secretary Way, TCNJ President Kathryn Foster, and TCNJ Student Government Vice President Jared Williams. 鈥淚鈥檓 thrilled to kick off the 樱花视频 Ballot Bowl at The College of 樱花视频,鈥� said Secretary of State Tahesha Way. 鈥淲e look forward to cheering on the efforts across the 27 campuses participating in the Ballot Bowl this fall. I鈥檓 so proud of all the students who are stepping up this season to help more people become 樱花视频 voters!鈥�

鈥淭CNJ has made great strides increasing the number of our students who are engaged in the voting process,鈥� said TCNJ President Kathryn Foster. 鈥淚n the 2020 general election, 83 percent of registered TCNJ students voted compared to a rate of 66 percent at colleges and universities nationwide. Our TCNJ VOTES! initiative, through the Center for Community Engagement and the Office of Leadership, has encouraged students to become educated and involved through voter registration drives, educational and informational sessions, film screenings and other events and programs.鈥�

New York Giant Casey Kreiter provided a video calling on students to 鈥済et in the game鈥� by joining the annual Ballot Bowl and working to register voters.
