Hi! My name is Kyle Hamm and I am the new State Coordinator in Colorado. Colorado is going to be an amazing place during this election cycle and we are especially excited to be partnering with New Era Colorado to register voters and turn out young people to vote this year. New Era shares Rock the Vote’s goal of engaging young people in politics, and we are working together to mount the largest mid-term voter registration drive ever (we think!).
In 2008, Rock the Vote Street Team volunteers registered thousands of young voters across Colorado. Not only did we register voters, but in true Rock the Vote style we did it with the help of friends like the Beastie Boys, Sheryl Crow, and other great artists. Thousands of young people turned out and proved that young people vote and our voices matter. In 2010, we plan to do the same.
As for me, after a few years of being a mountain man in the wilds of Colorado, I have made the move to the big city of Denver. Although I am already missing the wild life I am fired up to start working with all of Rock the Vote’s amazing volunteers to turn young people out this year and have some good times.
This summer and fall, Rock the Vote – and our great Street Team volunteers – and New Era will be engaging young people across Colorado at concerts, festivals, sporting events, and on college and high school campuses. Please stay tuned for details on how you can get involved.
We need you!
