Voting, music entwined in the #iVoted campaign
91成人导航 Conservatory of Music students from the Pac Ave Marketing team聽have joined the national campaign to encourage people to vote in the 2020 election.
The #iVoted initiative was founded by music industry entrepreneur with colleagues Pat Sansone and Mike Luba. In 2018, #iVoted partnered with more than 150 music venues in 37 states. Music fans were admitted to concerts on election night if they showed a photo of themselves outside of their polling place.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, artists were given the option of performing virtually this year. To RSVP for concerts links, all voters have to do is take a 鈥渟elfie鈥 outside their polling place or holding their blank ballot and submit them to #iVoted.
