Established in 2018, the California University and College Ballot Bowl is a friendly competition where all California higher education systems can compete to register the most students to vote.
The purpose of the California University and College Ballot Bowl is to:
- Inspire the students to become active participants in our democracy
- Motivate campuses to adopt and implement policies that boost civic engagement and participation
- Showcase best practices and most civically engaged California colleges and universities
A critical step to have our voices heard on key issues, policies, and by elected officials is to Register to Vote!
