Votergasm
Voters who visit the Votergasm website can choose from three different levels of commitment:
- “Votergasm citizens” must pledge to withhold sex from non-voters for a week after election night
- “Patriot-level commitment” requires a voter to have sex with another voter on election night as well as withholding sex from non-voters for a week
- Those who take the most extreme pledge, called “American hero”, commit themselves to having sex with another 2004 voter as well as turning down all non-voters until the 2008 vote.
Every year it seems like attempts to involve the youth vote are more and more far-reached. I think it speaks a lot about the common perception among young voters when being involved in electing the government needs to be spun with “sex and rock & roll.”
