The Hip Hop Caucus and Radio One, Inc, are collaborating in an effort to register more than 50,000 eligible voters in a single day which will set the world record for most voter registrations in a single day. Respect My Vote! is a non-partisan voter registration, education, and mobilization campaign. This groundbreaking initiative focuses on young people ages 18-29, especially those who did not attend college.

We have chosen to focus on this demographic because 66% of young adults aged 18-29 years who did not attend college DID NOT vote in the 2004 presidential election; and on Super Tuesday 93% of young adults 18-29 who did not attend college DID NOT vote. These alarming rates are cause for serious concern and by reaching out to all segments of the population and engaging our young people we will be one step further in ensuring a successful democracy.
