In 2004, David was watching the presidential election with his friends, and noticed that the big news story of the night was the absence of young voters at the polls. Disappointed, David resolved to find out why young people weren't voting and rally young people across the U.S. to get politically active. He launched the only youth-run, national multi-media initiative for young voter registration, contributing to the highest registration of 18-22 year-old voters in history. His film, 18 in '08' helped him to register, engage, and mobilize an entire generation of young people.
