Power Circle: Vote is a nonpartisan nonprofit dedicated to rallying the political power of young voters and people of color.

“Power Circle was created to bring people together to strategically leverage our community’s resources”
Representation Matters
Young voters are new voters and as new voters they face unique obstacles to voting that result in turnout that is historically 20 to 30 points below older voters. This discrepancy is even greater in midterms, state and local elections. As a result, our democracy continuously fails to represent youth, generation after generation.
“It is our mission to bring community leaders and organizers together to plot, plan, strategize, organize and mobilize young voters and people of color.”Floyd Phillips
As young voters overcome these challenges to break turnout records as they did in 2018, they’ve become the target of voter suppression efforts. From the rise of voter ID laws to intensified efforts to remove polling sites from college campuses, young people must navigate obstacles designed to keep them from making their voices heard. It is our mission to bring community leaders and organizers together to plot, plan, strategize, organize and mobilize young voters and people of color.
