Put rare Pokemon GO creatures at US electoral polling stations November 8th


Put rare Pokemon GO creatures at US electoral polling stations November 8th
The Issue
Historically low voter turnout and participation has been a huge problem in the United States of America for the past several decades. We need any method or strategies to help encourage more people, especially the youth, to take an interest in politics and vote.
The meteoric rise of Pokemon GO presents a unique opportunity to re-engage the youth of America like never before. With more active users than Twitter or Tinder, Pokemon GO could help increase voter turnout and participation in the upcoming November 8th US elections simply by placing rare and unique Pokemon at US polling locations. Such a task would require a low amount of effort to implement but could certainly have a major positive impact.
