Most of Kent State's student population are first-time voters in this election, with others being first-time voters in a presidential election.
Kent State Today visited the polls and saw a steady stream of students coming in to cast their votes at three polling locations near campus. We spoke with two first-time voters and one upperclass student who was casting their first vote for a presidential candidate. They said they felt "excited and energized" about voting.
Leading up to the election, Kent State Votes worked to inform and inspire student voters.
