Abstract
Despite its significance, the rate at which youth vote is consistently significantly lower than the rest of the voting population. While the tendency of youth to abstain from voting has been a significant area of research, the matter remains unsettled. This research attempts to establish the most significant barrier to youth participation in electoral politics.
