US EditionIn Pittsburgh, candidates face their future voters, part of a national effort to engage the young
- On April 24, 2025, the Allegheny Youth Vote Coalition and Pittsburgh Public Schools hosted the eighth candidate forum at Perry Traditional Academy in Pittsburgh.
- The forum aimed to address historically low youth voter turnout, which was 15% among voters under 30 in the 2020 election, reflecting a national trend of youth disengagement.
- During the forum, students asked candidates questions on issues like neighborhood policing, public safety, and school funding, reflecting concerns important to their futures and peers.
- Mayoral candidate Tony Moreno encouraged students by saying they represent the leaders Pittsburgh has been anticipating, while another candidate, Thomas West, described them as the city's future.
- This initiative, which is part of a broader campaign that included numerous voter registration events, reflects an increasing awareness that engaging young people early can shape their future political involvement and influence policymaking.
