    Description“Beyond the structural issues that prevent them from voting, such as voter ID rules that disproportionately impact these communities, many of the young people I spoke to felt frustrated by the lack of representation of issues that matter to them in the electoral discourse,” Dennis told the Big Issue, adding he wasn’t surprised by low election turnout among the young.
