Voter Registration

Since 2008, Worker Power Institute has worked to increase voter participation among young people and voters of color in the interest of creating a government that will improve the lives of working families in Arizona.

Since 2012, Worker Power has enrolled over 100,000 voters into Arizona’s permanent vote-by-mail list, many of them people of color and youth voters. That work has significantly increased voter participation among underrepresented communities in federal, state, and local elections.

In 2022, our voter registration team made over 250,000 voter registration attempts and collected over 11,800 applications – nearly all applicants opting into Arizona’s vote-by-mail list. Much of our success came in registering students at community college campuses across greater Phoenix and neighborhoods with historically underrepresented communities.
